[quote=Anonymous]Depends what you mean by good college. For many Asian immigrants it is ideally Harvard but at least a top 20. You’d get the most effective advice on how to crack that nut by joining a board of Asian parents discussing college strategies. You have time to figure it out but for now, there is one thing that you need to pay attention to. To be competitive for top stem colleges, in many school systems, FCPS in particular you have to be on the advanced math track which starts in MS so that you can finish HS at least with multivariate calculus. Also, the poster advising participation in sports as a sure ticket to college doesn’t know what they are talking about. You have to be a very high level athlete to be recruited by college. Not going to happen for a kid not talented/interested in sports. [/quote]
