[quote=Anonymous]I mean, I didn't even really have all B's and C's (I had some D's and even an F) and I went to Indiana University and graduated in phi beta kappa. My SAT score was fine, but nothing great. Having said that I was in high school in the 90's, was depressed, didn't study for the SAT, only took it once, and skipped ALOT of school my last two years of high school. I was initially recruited by a different school for a sport I was good at, but I didn't participate in that at IU so that was a non-factor. Not sure how much an experience from that many years ago is worth. I think going to a large state school can be a solution (maybe not UMD though) and/or find a small school that the kid is interested in and then have them demonstrate the interest. Or take a gap year and let the kid get a real taste of life without a college degree and then they will be more motivated. [/quote]
