[quote=Anonymous]My engineering kid with a B+ average but high ACT score goes to RPI. He got into some state flagships and some engineering schools similar to RPI like WPI and Stevens. Kid 2 has a solid 3.0 mostly dragged down by a bad freshman year. 1380 SAT—not bothering to take again bc of his GPA and intended major. Will take 1 AP (total, our school does not make it easy to take them). HS is well-regarded public with higher than average admission rates for some colleges. He is targeting schools that have high admission rates (especially if high from our school) and good music programs: Michigan State CU-Boulder Indiana (a reach for music) Miami of Ohio JMU UVM possibly U Oregon * Syracuse (a big reach but possible for music) and some smaller schools: Ithaca College U Denver a few more TBD. I agree with a PP that OOS publics that have high admission rates (especially if they are NOT harder to get into OOS) are a good choice for B students from the NE. [/quote]
