This is your answer. Second option GWU. [/quote]

Disagree.  W&M takes top students, not "average" (OPs own assertion).  Last year's incoming class at the 75th percentile (where you should be if not hooked) had a 1520, a 34 and a weighted GPA of 4.53.  https://research.schev.edu//enrollment/B10_FreshmenProfile.asp[/quote]

Last year from my kid’s FCPS HS (which DCUM would regard as lower-tier) t[b]he average weighted gpa was 4.3 and the average test score was 1380[/b] for W&M accepted kids (and there were a LOT of them).  Those are good students but not what DCUM would call “top students” I am sure.[/quote]

Ok that's not a good high school. Too much grade inflation.
Im sorry.[/quote]

WTF are you [b]babbling[/b] about? Did you see what I was replying to? The PP said the incoming class at W&M had a 75th percentile gpa of 4.53. And, as it happens, the median gpa is 4.36, which is exactly the average weighted gpa of the kids who got into W&M from my kid's HS.

My kid's HS is exactly in line with what you'd expect from W&M admissions stats. If my kid's HS is "not good" because it has "too much grade inflation" then [i]every single high school from which W&M accepted kids last year [/i]is also "not good" and has "too much grade inflation".

See that our "babbling idiot" poster is back.

Very persuasive poster who thinks that insulting others is the way to establish superiority.

To the "babbling idiot" who uses these terms in each of his posts: Why not wait until you reach puberty before posting ?[/quote]
