[quote=Anonymous]"Please don’t say “3.7 GPA, 1200 SAT and average” in the same sentence." Two years ago our DS was sitting in his junior year with these same stats and we were convinced, partially by this web site, not to apply to UMd. By the fall, he had done some SAT prep, broken 1300 and improved his uw GPA to just over 3.5 and he got into everywhere he applied except Virginia Tech, waitlisted and not picked up. He is now sitting in the 2nd semester of his freshman year at a top 60 Engineering school with a 3.2 GPA. We are paying almost $60k a year to send him. While we are thrilled he is doing well, we kick ourselves every day that we didn't at least apply to UMd. He may or may not have been the last student accepted, according to the stats, but someone has to occupy that slot. Why not the OP's DD?[/quote]
