[quote=Anonymous]You are going to have to ask your college admissions office. The average GPA at your kid's school (even an elite DC private) is probably about a 3.5 so your kid is definitely in the bottom half of the grade. Even at these difficult school there are kids getting all As or close to it. Look at the school's college admissions Instagram account from the past year and see where some of the kids went who appear to be in the lower half. Places like Ivies and other top 30 schools are out. Other top 50 schools are likely out unless your kid gets some sort of super lucky break. The good news is that there are tons of good school above 50. Liberal arts colleges are a great idea as they have the time to read applications and they recognize that a 3.0 from a super elite high school may be worth taking. [/quote]
