[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I have a 17 years old son who is currently a HS junior.  His freshman and sophomore GPA was abysmal, close to 2.0.  He wanted to be a musician like his uncle and wasted his freshman and sophomore.  He finally recognized that it will never happen.  His uncle always needs help with $$$ from me.  Thanks god I make more than enough to support my brother.

Anyways, he is getting straight As in his junior year and he will be taking 5 AP courses in his senior year.  He has his mother's DNA to do this.  Wife is a beltway bandit, attorney for a big government contractor.  I think he will get straight As in his senior as well.  He took the SAT in Dec 2017 and got a 1590 score.

He would like to attend UVa.  Will the UVa admissions office hold the GPA in 9th and 10th against him?  Will they accept him based on his SAT score and GPA in  grade 11th and 12th?

UVA is out unless he does the community college guaranteed admission route.  However, there are plenty of other schools out there that would consider him, including other state flagships.[/quote]
