[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Not typical for this forum but looking for suggestions for my below average kid.
Last year (11th grade) was extremely difficult year with personal and family issues which resulted in terrible grades - basically gave up on the 2nd semester.
GPA at the end of 10th grade was 3.31/3.66.
GPA at the end of 11th grade was 2.87/3.31.
1st ACT was 22. Currently working with a tutor and taking again on 9/11. Not a good test taker.
DS is at a public HS in MD (one of the W schools) so his stats will not look good. Has taken 3 AP classes.
Not many extracurricular activities (2 sports) and a part time job for the last 2 years at the same place.
Looking to get into a Business program or possibly Hospitality management. Cost is not a factor.[/quote]

DD had similar stats 3.4uw, 5 AP classes 1210 SAT and got into 8/9 schools including Delaware, South Carolina, and UMass. Don’t panic. She is now at different large university and loving life. South Carolina and Costal Carolina have strong Hospitality programs. [/quote]
