[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Op here. I understand his gpa isn’t good. But I have seen a lot of these statements below and thought perhaps there is hope somewhere. “Colleges would rather see a B in a challenging class than a B in an easier class.” “They want to see you have challenged yourself to the hardest classes your school has to offer.” We know better now and yes have learnt a lesson. To a pp, his only EC was not only a Scioly. He has awards from his sports which he has done since Freshman, has leadership role, TSA, and more. His scioly medal was from state level after getting the gold in regional. I am not saying that he is excellent, he is not; but am clarifying to a pp that he did have more than one EC. He picked 2 Stem teachers for his recommendations in classes he got As in and had good rapport with. Again, I see the biggest issue has been his unweighted gpa. I honestly don’t see whats wrong in his app, except his gpa and that he didn’t take 4 years of a foreign language. [/quote] Ok—so, in the future, do actual research and don’t rely on a bunch of DCUM commenters who probably haven’t even gone through the college application process. GMU and VCU are fine schools and good fits for his stats. You’re only bent out of shape about those schools because you listen to anonymous opinions on this board. [/quote]
