[quote=Anonymous]It would be more helpful to know his unweighted GPA and the rigor of his classes. Did he take APs, honors, any college classes? A 4.1 is most likely not going to get your son into Duke. He can always apply to reaches. It is a lot of work, though, to apply to a ton of places because of all the different essays. He should definitely have some safety schools he wouldn't mind going to. If your son's grades and scores are withiin the mid range or lower range of grades and scores for a school, then that school is not a sure thing. A sure thiing is the school where your son's scores and grades are at the top of the range or better.[/quote]
