[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I’m trying to figure out if it is worth taking my junior to visit any of these schools during the spring/summer — if anyone can give them thoughts on whether the following kid has any shot at Wisconsin, Purdue, VT, OOS if appreciate it:
3.2 UW, but all high rigor so 4.2 weighted, from big public school.  1550 SAT.  10 APs through junior year, and let’s assume 5s on BC Calc, physics mechanics, physics c, AP chem, apush, AP lang, AP gov, and 4s on CS principles, CS Java and AP world history.  Will talk MV Calc and Physics EM senior year along with an engineering elective and some humanist APs.  So basically a good candidate except lots of Bs on report card.[/quote]
I think you need to aim lower will be lots of kids with same rigor and perfect or near perfect grades.[/quote]

So your view is that it is not worth even visiting any of these schools?  I wasn’t considering these as “safeties” or anything — but don’t know if they are reaches or don’t even bothers.  [/quote]
