[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Instead of focusing on a few Bs, look at his overall, weighted GPA. [b]Anything above a 4.2 from FCPS generally gets admitted[/b]. If the lower grades are concentrated in something he wants to pursue, that could be a problem. Also, if the Bs are in AP courses, and he got a 4 or 5 on the corresponding AP tests, AO would conclude that he knows the material but the class was particularly difficult. [/quote] False. Not even the bottom 25th percentile of UVA admittees last year were that low.[/quote] UVA and W&M are two different schools. Why would you use the stats of one to judge the likelihood of admission to the other, especially when all the facts are available. More specifically, I’ve seen Naviance for my kids better FCPS and 4.2 and better mostly get admits. [/quote]
