[quote=Anonymous]OP - please don't despair. My child got into UVA, UCLA, Michigan and UNC this spring and has started at one of the above schools this fall. DC struggled with Math throughout high school. Case in point - DC just took placement exam at college and only placed into Pre-calculus. So this should give you an idea of how Math was the Achilles heel. However, DC's English/reading/comprehension scores were always strong in high school and for the college placement tests. ACT English scores were consistently 6 points higher than Math. I think DC's English scores, strong essays and recommendations led to good college admissions. I'm not saying the public ivies listed above are the top schools in the U.S. but they were what DC aimed for and got into. [/quote]
