[quote=Anonymous]There is no single answer to this. It depends on the child, the family, and many many other things. One important thing to understand is that for a non-magnet public HS, UVa will focus on the top 10-15% of graduating students. A lower tier student might well be accepted based on ECs or special circumstances or something, but the focus (and most acceptances) will be in that top 10-15% of the class. Colleges can figure the approximate percentage from the school profile, so lack of an official class rank will not change this. For a magnet — OR for a private that UVa likes and that UVa thinks is rigorous (whether or not it really is rigorous), UVa will focus on the top 10-25% of the graduating class. No one on DCUM really knows whether FH is in that category or not. In other metro areas in-state, there are private schools that fit that category, at least 2 exist in Richmond.[/quote]
