[quote=Anonymous]My child had relatively low SAT scores (for this area) but a high B GPA (3.7 unweighted, 4.2 weighted.) Got significant merit aid (more than 25K) from a number of schools that might be considered second tier (ranked 30-90 for national LAC's). I have heard that schools favor the high GPA low standardized test scores combo more than the reverse (IF they can't get high both) because it means the kid is willing to work hard/can prioritize school work, etc. They worry a bit about a kid who seems capable of doing better but either can't or won't.[/quote]
