[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Hello,

My niece is midway through Junior year so hasn't had her appt with college counseling yet. But she is a hard-working, engaged student at an academic private (not DMV) that is competitive to enter. She will have the equivalent of 8 APs in core subjects when she graduates. They don't offer APs per se but have their own version of it (similar to Andover). She wants to study social sciences (poli sci, history, econ) in college but has been strong in all core subjects to date. Her unweighted GPA is 3.7-3.8.

She is not targeting the top 20 for some reason (except maybe 1 reach). But from your experience, [b]what schools would be good targets or matches with decent likelihood of admission[/b].

She acts in the school play and is involved in the school's newspaper and literary magazine. She is not an athlete.

My sister is not American so she is a bit confused. I do think she'll learn more from her college person when that appt happens. I have a freshman in HS here in DMV and she asked me to post. I'm also from outside the US.[/quote]
Targets and matches, particularly with a private, are school specific. Niece should speak with school HS counselor. Your sister is PAYING for guidance. [/quote]
