[quote=Anonymous]The way you described it as top 10% going to UVA, top 30% going to VT, and the rest going elsewhere is a bit simplistic, by the way. You need to be top 5% at my kid's school (4.4 GPA) to get into UVA, but VT is no slam dunk. WM, JMU and the others also have tons of great, successful kids and schools. You can't be top 30% and get into VT Pamplin or Engineering. Stop thinking or describing it as a relative safety to UVA. Anyway, your kid can decide, but once you get the acceptance options and the costs and real distances come into play, the in state options might look better to them. Apply to both kinds of schools and see what happens.[/quote]
