[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Op here, I think had his gpa been even 4.3 he could have gotten in to couple more⦠he has 4.1 He has top rigor classes like [b]AP Physics C and Multivariable Calculus BC. [/b]But he never took 4 years of a foreign language. Yes, he is also in a very competitive NOVA high school. Just so baffled to see the string of rejections come in. Maybe a waitlist will happen that is meant to be. [/quote] What were his grades in these 2 APs? These are hard. If scored a 5 in each then you didn't apply to enough colleges. Sometimes (may not apply to your child) people try to take these hard APs for the sake of taking them. if you do well they won't hurt you, but if you bombed them they hurt you.[/quote] [b]B- in the Calculus and A in the Physics.[/b] He also got a medal in a science Olympiad. I think as you and a pp mentions he didnt apply to enough of the middle ground colleges. Regret not applying to JMU as well.[/quote] B- in FCPS is not good. I doubt the counselor supported a list of schools as selective as UVA. What did they recommend originally?[/quote]
