[quote=Anonymous][quote]I didn't say it's weak. It's just not strong enough to get meaningful amount of merit aids from somewhat respectable schools. There are, simply, too many high performing kids in this area.[/quote] But OP's kid is not interested in applying to schools in this area. Big public schools will almost certainly use a weighted GPA. My DS had similarly "not strong enough" stats, went to an FCPS HS, took fewer APs, and was awarded $12,500 from UMDCP for a 1480 SAT and a GPA in a similar range (3.9 weighted, probably around 3.6 unweighted).
