[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]She's in 9th grade. It's fine as long as the trend is ever upward from here. But maybe lower the college expectation from T20 and be cool with that. Kids at high performing schools have so much pressure as it is.[/quote] It's not fine. If she has a 3.4 she's going to need a perfect 4.0 the next two years to get to a 3.8. A 3.8 is needed for a top20 outside of maybe U Chicago. I have scrutinized Scoir for a Big3. The line in the sand (even ED) is about 3.8. Some DCUM posters are seriously out to lunch or haven't had a senior in years. [/quote] I should say those grades are not fine for a top20 school. they of course are more than "fine" in general. but the top20 school ship has sailed. Recognize it and embrace the kid you have!!
