[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote] As an aside, I know of a girl who went to one of the more middle-ish schools, did NOT have a 4.0 GPA or any particularly scholarly works. Was a cheerleader and worked summers at a local craft store. She got into 11 out of 15 schools including Penn, William &Mary, UVa, and others. I was kind of surprised since I thought you pretty much had to have above a 4.0 to get in those schools from NoVa. [/quote] She may have had terrific SATs. If she were working, she may have been a first generation college student which gives additional points. Also, it depends on how recently this was. She certainly must have had very good grades. Was this before the grade inflation? [/quote] What does that mean? My husband and I both worked through high school and we were not first generation college students. We fully expect our children to work so they learn the value of money, not because need financial assistance from our children. [/quote]
