[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My DD is interested in sciences (biochem/engineering/pre-med?) and currently making a list with the usual suspects. She has good stats ([b]35 ACT, 800 Math2, 800 BioM, high GPA)[/b]. Curious if there are those who have targeted "lower-tier" schools to try to lots of merit aid? According to Naviance, she has a great shot at some great schools, but we have younger children to plan for as well. What schools would you add to your list with this in mind? TIA![/quote] 1. yes, target lower tier school for merit 2. a 35 is very good score but, particularly in this area, there are tons of kids with 35s. National %-tile doesn't matter. 3. lower tier schools don't care about SAT II scores. Most don't require it, they won't look at it. [/quote]
