[quote=Anonymous]Got a bunch of merit offers from LACs ranked in the 40-100 range. Seemed like they came in three varieties: - Those that competed with state flagship, essentially knocking 50% off cost of attendance (bringing annual costs down into low-mid-30s). - Those that knocked roughly 1/3 off the cost of attendance -- awards of 25-29K (annual cost in the 45-50k range). - Those that took the edge off, like 10-15k annual merit, but leaving pretty pretty high sticker prices. Hesitant to post too many details, as I agree with PP that schools probably hate this. But scores were sub-1500 and grades were B+/A- range. [/quote]
