[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My son goes to Randolph Macon. He got an incredible offer but his SAT was higher and he is also an athlete. But, it’s a really great school (it’s very small but that’s an advantage for a lot of reasons). It’s a beautiful campus. He really likes it. [/quote] A “really great school”? Seems a bit of a stretch. Six year graduation rate in the high 50’s. Rankings, acceptance rate, test scores, salary metrics - none are very competitive. (Though I agree the campus is very nice.) That’s a long way from great. Not saying it doesn’t have a place in the spectrum of students but great is a term that gets thrown around a lot. If Macon is really great then that’s an extremely long list. And for the record, my less-than-studious son is looking at Macon so I’m no hater. [/quote]
