[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP, you have much to learn.

First, there's no way a 1410 is "well above" the average SAT for a student admitted to UVA from any NOVA public high school.

Second, even before legacy was outlawed in VA public colleges it didn't carry a whole lot of weight for in state UVA applicants.  It really only mattered for out of state.[/quote]

A 1410 can be above average for her high school's admittance--maybe her HS sucks and most kids score lower. Not every HS in NoVa is super high achieving.  [/quote]

My DD is entering her second year at UVA, and she reported her 1390 SAT score. We discussed TO, and ultimately it was her decision. She said UVA would assume the score was lower if she didn’t report, and she wanted to go to school that wanted her. She was at a DMV public. [/quote]

DP. Love this.[/quote]

Thank you. She was also admitted to VT Honors, where she also reported the 1390. OP, best of luck to your DC. [/quote]
