[quote=Anonymous]Another proud mom here with a "1500 and B plus kid" - great kid, but very social and did not but forth a lot of effort in HS. B plus coupled with a good SAT score gets you into many expensive schools so college choice was not a problem. DC selected a larger VA public over smaller out of state LACs because it just felt right. So far it has been a fantastic experience - DC had a 3.8 first semester and applied and was accepted into the honors college for next year. Very motivated to get good grades now and is loving college which has been a huge relief. I just think he had to mature a bit. There are many paths that fall between top 30 schools and community college - perhaps engage the student about what is best for him.[/quote]
