[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote] Berkeley,UVA,CMU,UMCP,TA&M Stats SAT 1480, ACT 34, GPA 4.00 and 4.6 w, NHS,honors and 6 APs[/quote] OP, I hope you don't take this the wrong way but I don't think your DC is as competitive as you think. [b]Given 4.6 wt GPA, I assume you are from MCPS (FCPS only give .5 to honors, I think) and given DC has 6 APs, I assume he has taken mostly honors courses. So, while his test scores are respectable, there are literally thousands of kids with similar or better stats in MCPS.[/b] For UMD, I think you DC will get in no problem but probably not good enough for merit scholarship - nothing significant anyway. I say this so you can calibrate your DC's list of schools and add more safety schools. Good luck. [/quote] +1 I agree. OP's kid has good stats but not anything really stands out. [/quote]
