[quote=Anonymous]I had a very smart, but low GPA student due to executive function challenges and ADHD. I think DC had a 2.8 in 10th grade. In 11th grade the switch flipped and suddenly grades were much, much better. Doing well in college now. Had a low GPA and pretty good test score (1490 SAT). Went to a top private school, which definitely helped with college results (Syracuse, Indiana, Penn State, Tennessee, SMU, South Carolina, VT). DC could have gotten into even higher ranked schools if they were willing to consider SLACs that liked grads from their school, but didn’t want a small, remote or rural campus. I would ask your college counselor because no one here will know what tier of school to aim for and where your school might have a relationship that might help your DC get in. Good luck. [/quote]
