[quote=Anonymous]A 32 on the ACT,an A- average in honors/AP classes, a varsity sport and okay extracurriculars/leadership got my daughter into a top 20 school, wait listed at top 10 schools and rejected from Ivies/Williams/Amherst. My daughter only ended up with one really good option (I guess some would say that that is all it takes!) and her safeties. Remember that the bar is higher for girls because more girls apply to college and the colleges seek gender parity. If she had to do it again she would have applied to more top 20 type schools and fewer of the very top tier. Some kids do better on the SAT than the ACT so that might be an option. But some colleges, as one PP mentioned (Georgetown comes to mind) require that you submit all scores. Has your child considered Emory, Vanderbilt or Rice as top choices?[/quote]
