Not taking SAT again? DD has same grades in MCPS and SAT is 150+ higher
some people aren't test takers you know and frankly a 1410 is plenty good enough to get into all of those schools, and more.
Once you are over 1400 you are fine, especially if you are over 700 in each. No need to retake at that level.
While that’s an amazing score I’d be thrilled for my kids to get, I don’t agree with this if the kid is shooting for Ivy or similar. And Scattergrams agree.
Did you miss the list of where this kid is applying ? No Ivys.

WTH???
NP. Totally see why that is offensive but I don't think PP meant any harm.
I think it was because she compared her own daughter to the OP
Totally agree. I think she meant to say, in comparing them, I think your son can do better on the SATs so it might be worth retaking. But yeah, terrible the way she said it.

So we will have same targets as safeties
With that high of SAT, and a great GPA you can get plenty of merit aid. Especially at out of state publics.
Like University of Alabama? Any other that are actually worth considering?
University of Arkansas
