Hi,
I found posting a school list for our eldest son very helpful so I'm hoping for help with son 2. We could use suggestions on matches and if we've assigned schools to the wrong category.
tia,
He has an 87 average which works out to 3.2 unweighted. His gpa shows an upward trend, 3.4 sophomore year and 3.5 last year. He'll have taken 5 APs by the time he graduates as well as honors english. fwiw, the public hs he attends was ranked in the top 120 in the country.
SAT first sitting: M:670, RC730, W:710
I know the sat/gpa gap makes it look like a lazy/bored kid but he suffers from chronic insomnia and has improved how he deals with it over the course of hs.
ECs:
shakespeare club
acting in drams and shakespeare plays
improv comedy troupe
varsity tennis
safe - Using naviance, no one in the history of our school has been rejected with similar stats:
clark
knox
marist
UVM
match
bennington
reach
oberlin (ed)
grinell
bard
far reach
u mich - oddly, parchment shows his chances at ~70%. I know UM is not thought of as quirky but his brother lives in the residential college and it's plenty quirky.
bates - here again, oddly parchment has him at 65%
