[quote=Anonymous]OP -- I'd say it depends on the type of school. If your son is applying to SLACs he's probably in better shape than his stats suggest because those schools are always trying to load up on boys. Check out the Common Data Set for individual schools for the number of male vs. female applicants. The disparity can be pretty huge, and that could work in your favor. FWIW my DD with similar stats did far better in college admissions than we expected. I think that's because we were pretty strategic in picking schools that didn't see tons of DC private school kids, and she visited and interviewed at the reaches. [/quote]
