[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Ok, my DC was ecstatic she earned a 1490.  Went to college counselor who was meh.  Said, most of her choice schools were still reach for her and suggested to retake the exam.  That's all well and good but with Covid, I just don't think we can do it again.  She's all As.  Has taken 5 APs - scores all 5s, one 4.  One she did not take the exam.  Captain of sports team.  Other extracurriculars - nice but not huge.  What are the best schools you think she could get into?[/quote]

Her scores are great, and many students will have no scores at all.

Example: I started a thread asking if maybe my son could take some kind of online test, like the online SATs, and use that as an SAT substitute.

So, anyhow, I think your daughter should simply apply to a wide range of schools, including her dream schools, affordable in-state public flagship-level schools, and financial safeties, and see what happens.

The same would be true if she had all 800s. Yale might be about as much a lottery for a student with all 800s as it would be for your daughter.[/quote]
