[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][b]If you can get your son to have a 1500+ SAT or 34+ ACT, a bunch of new doors would open.[/b] Really aim for those scores + developed, authentic, personal ECs and the story will flow naturally.

Cornell land grant schools for ED would be in range. UChicago and Northwestern ED potentially. I would also advocate for Michigan, Wisconsin, Tulane, and some of the other schools PPs mentioned.

There is a lot of variability now, but still time to maximize odds. Good luck[/quote]

Such a ridiculous comment.  I'm sorry, call me nasty, but it just IS.  I don't think OP needs to be told that over-the-top SAT scores can open more doors.  Please explain how this is helpful.[/quote]
1500+ is not over the top, it's very realistic.  Over the top means 1580+ or 36.

Well, not only is that a ridiculous retort, if you'd actually read OP's posts you'd know you"re being unrealistic.

From now on, I'm going to respond to every post requesting advice on college admissions by suggesting that the kid get over a 1500 on the SAT.[/quote]

Do you have better things to do?  You have been here all day long.  [/quote]

Talk about nasty.[/quote]
