[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Parent of a kid who didn't get into VA Tech and one who did. The one who didn't get in is the older one. Perfect grades but didn't take the AP class for their intended major until senior year. Put all their effort into their Common App essay which I don't think Tech reads, and wrote something about art in their Tech essay when the intended major was in STEM. The other kid had good but not perfect grades but they steadily improved. Took the AP class for their intended (same as the other kid) major. Focused on the Tech essay. Same sports/activities. I think your kid has time and I also think [b]first gen is something Tech will take into account. [/b] Just be there for your child and encourage them. [/quote] This kid isn't first gen.[/quote]
