[quote=Anonymous]Those scores are pretty low compared to the average at top privates. How are her grades in school? Did she take the sat as well, and is she in a higher percentile there? I see two paths: A) find a school that will take her with these scores. They exist, especially if you are full pay. B) go test optional. But will she be able to pass her classes at a school that is more demanding than her act scores indicate she can handle? One thing to consider is if her scores are bad across the board, or if she struggles in one area. If the latter, she may want to look for schools without a core curriculum so she doesn't have to take more classes in the areas where she is deficient. Or maybe schools where more of the classes have projects rather than tests, or grade pass/fail the first year, or there are lots of externships or work co-ops?[/quote]
