[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]To OP - no one has said this yet so I'm tossing in a thought. You don't know at this point in middle school if your kids will have the stats and ECs for admission to UVA or W&M.   [/quote]

Eh if her kids are in private middle school, she doesn't need to worry about it.[/quote]

False. She has no idea now if her kids will have a 4.5 GPA, a 35 ACT or a 1520 SAT, which is the 75th percentile of last fall's class at UVA - and pretty much what you need to compete successfully for a slot from NOVA. Competition for in-state schools is only going to go up as privates approach $100k a year. (USC is now $96k)[/quote]

Private middle school = two smart parents with money = those kids aren't going to have a problem getting into UVA.[/quote]

DP. This is not even remotely true.[/quote]

I’m sorry you are painfully stupid.[/quote]

why do you care so much that you have to resort to insulting this PP. It is ture and they are not "painfully stupid". Ask any public or private college counselor. Simply "being in a private middle school with parents with money - as was suggested" - does NOT mean automatic in to UVA just like a similad
r case in CA does not mean an auto in to UCLA or Cal. The kid has to have the stats (and, yes, TO is going away for UVA in fall of 2026) and the ECs and LORs to make an meritorious application and then sit and pray be Use there are only 5,000 seats (unlike UCLA and Cal) and of course URM and first-gen helps.

[b]Oh, I get it you are a rival kid at VT. Go to bed[/b].[/quote]

DP.  Really sick of you always trotting out this line when someone criticizes UVA.  You have no idea who is posting, and I guarantee you, the kids at VT aren't giving a second thought to UVA.   :roll:  Stop trying to implicate a school with zero proof.[/quote]
