[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]so hard to tell from all the sites etc how much the ACT will be weighted vs lots of other things.  Will the 32 ACT mean that he is at the low end of what they look at even if he has good grades, good classes, good ECs?

Tufts, BU, URochester--are these all complete reaches?  what others could be targets/safeties-- in Northeast.[/quote]

1) Your high school really matters. The college counselor can tell you the stats for students from your school who were admitted to these any any colleges.

2) You can also search for the Common Cata Aet for every college on their websites. There is an admission section where tell you things about who enrolled including the range of test scores for the students on the middle 50% (so now the lowest 25^ or the highest.

You want your kid to be well above the 75% mark to be a possible match. But at a school with an overall admission rate below 20%, know that being in the top quarter isn’t a guarantee.

2) Big safety schools would be SUNY Binghamton, UMass, U Vermont etc. Not a safety but look at Brandeis too. [/quote]
