[quote=Anonymous]What does your child want to study? Big school or small? And where in the state are you? If you are from Nova, UVA is most likely off the table, and possibly W&M. Downstate, who knows - it’s easier to get in from elsewhere. VT is also likely off the table if the low grade was in STEM and they want to study engineering. They should get into the rest of the state schools, easily. But so much is dependent on the whole package - how hard were the courses, ECs, etc. Look for the school that best suits your kid’s learning style and career goals. Don’t chase a ranking, and if money is an issue many schools outside of the top ones will give merit money to bring the price down. My kid had lower grades than that and got a D+ in chemistry sophomore year and still got in everywhere he applied. Needless to say he wasn’t applying for STEM, and he really liked small schools.
