[quote=Anonymous][quote]it doesn't matter what percentile it is. your DC will "compete" with kids from his own school, own district, own region. Not someone from Nebraska. And around here (in DMV area), it's a so-so score.[/quote] Only at in-state schools and maybe a few others that get a ton of applicants from this area. It's a big country with a lot of great schools. My DC applied to some OOS publics that have relatively few applicants from his school. He had a "terrible" weighted GPA of 3.4 and an "OK" 30 ACT and was admitted to places like Indiana and Minnesota. The average ACT score at DC's high school which is "around here" is actually a 26 and 90% of students go to 4 year schools. [/quote]
