[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Students mature at their own pace and need different things. Getting into a decent school -- but not T20 school -- is okay. Being a complete and whole person is important. And don't forget -- there's always graduate school if he finds his passion and becomes more focused on academic achievement. [/quote]

I totally agree with this as a philosophy.  But I don’t really know what’s constitutes a “decent” school.   I just don’t really know how to measure the schools below the T100 or so.  I mean, obviously avoid llle Trump university or whatever the equivalent is now.  But I really don’t know where to draw the line or say “I’m not paying 50K a year for that” or whatever the line is.  Some of the safety schools people recommend on these threads I have absolutely never heard  of.  Unfortunately, even state schools that were once easy admits llle Florida or Michigan state now range from impossible to really hard admits for a kid getting Bs and maybe a couple Cs. [/quote]
