[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]In this competitive environment, I’m not sure that the rigor is helping my DS get into a decent top 50 college . 11 IB classes, 3 AP, full IB diploma expected. Will land with 27 B’s, 23 As, 5 Cs and 1 D. Lots of leadership and ECs coming from a large MCPS HS. Worked part time and matured alot through gradual leadership positions in HS. Test optional, prefers mid-Atlantic, Northeast urban school. Acceptances to schools with 20-30% acceptance rates are not coming in. He doesn’t want to do gap year but that might not be a bad option. He gets an A for effort on my book. Undecided major, not STEM oriented (his words). Any ideas of schools or gap year programs ?[/quote] Test optional was a big mistake. Is this Einstein? Counseling office is still encouraging this when the vast majority of kids need to be taking the SAT (and prepping for it in some way).[/quote]
