[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]If he doesn’t have the grades and rigor, the business won’t get him accepted. Agree with others it is best addressed in essays. [/quote] He has decent grades but doesn't want to load up in all ap courses, he took 2 freshman year then took more sohpmore. So rigor is defined by academic performance and how many ap courses? Are there colleges that will take more applicable skills into account?[/quote] To add please see that his SATs are mid 1500s. Maybe we don't even want him going to a place that prioritizes all those other things. What is a good fit for him?[/quote] The test optional trend has made GPAs and course rigor all the more important. A few schools require and prioritize SATs (e.g. MIT has returned to requiring test scores) but I don't know of any school where the scores will make the grades/rigor not matter. [/quote]
