[quote=Anonymous]I'm hoping to get some advice from those of you who just went through the application cycle. My kid is a rising junior, so I know this is early but I think over the next year I need to set expectations for what's realistic and start directing him to look at possible schools. I'd love advice about possible schools to look at -- I think any region, any type of school (big, small) would work. Not hugely into basketball or football or the big party scene, so I'd say none of that is a draw, but also wouldn't bother him. White male, MCPS. SAT between 1500 and 1550, GPA between 3.5/3.6UW, 4.4/4.5W, all Honors and APs with 10 APs through Junior year including Physics, Chem, Calc BC, Java. Extracurriculars are pretty ordinary -- has stuff he does, but no national awards or anything exciting. What might be some safeties, targets, reaches? [/quote]
