[quote=Anonymous]OP, I would include a wide range of schools. Bad grades freshman year may not be a dealbreaker, though predicting chances is especially difficult this year. It is often said that admission officers like to see a rising trend, which your son has. As long as he has low matches and safeties he'd be happy with, there's nothing wrong with including plenty of high matches and reaches. I wonder what results may look like for the applicant with imperfect grades but good scores and how that app is evaluated in the context of the fact that applicant pool will contain a large chunk of applicants with better grades but no scores. (My kid is in a similar position with low grades/high scores, although my kid is a URM, and I have no clue how things will turn out.)[/quote]
