[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I didn’t read all of the responses but I found it interesting that the two schools my don was deferred at for EA were in-state schools. Neither one is known for a low admissions rate either. I guess his 3.3 just can’t measure up against the high and super high GPAs. Those schools were his safety schools so it’s not a big deal but just surprising. [/quote] 3.3 is low, for public and private.[/quote] It is absolutely not low at NCS. Most of my daughters friends are right around 3.0-3.4[/quote] Are these current seniors? My daughter is in 10th and she doesn't discuss grades with her friends, but I've been wondering what the norm is. [/quote] Yes, for current seniors. ACT 32-34 and SAT 1480-1500. These are objectively smart girls. They are not upset about not getting into top 20 colleges. They are upset about getting deferred and rejected from colleges in the 50-150 range. [/quote]
