[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My son and I visited UVA in the spring of this junior year. At the end of the presentation by the admissions person he looked over at me and said, “I wish I had heard all of this when I was in 8th grade or a freshman”. I thought that was pretty telling.[/quote] Do you know what specifically he wished he’d heard? [/quote] What it takes to get in. I.e. the GPA, the test scores and the leadership roles they are looking for. I interpreted it mean he would have done things differently, mainly around focusing on his grades. I remember sharing what it takes with him early on but sometimes your children need to hear it from someone else. Things worked out fine for him. He is at VT in a STEM major and doing well.[/quote]
