[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]With a 1510, OP’s kid can be selective. The only reason to move down the list would be if they need merit aid[/quote] I guess you have not been paying attention to the last few months’ posts.[/quote] Once you're kid has a 1500 SAT and 3.8 GPA, all bets are off. S/he can apply to any top school s/he wants and has a chance of getting in. The numbers no longer matter at the top schools, as long as your kid has decent stats. The top colleges can fill their freshman class several times over with top stats kids. So a kid with a 1510 and 4.0 is not a shoe-in at any top college. They pick and choose, and it's anybody's guess why one kid gets in and another doesn't. [/quote]
