<p>We also know a young man with similar stats who got into Pitt, Penn State University Park, Ohio State, and Clemson (all OOS) as well as a couple of in-state schools.</p>
<p>OP, I hear your concern. S2 is in a similar situation and we have told him that excellent AP scores and SATs will help support that it’s a very, very tough school. Look at your school profile (check with the registrar/guidance office) and see how they present rankings/difficulty, etc. They make it clear how tough the school is (or not, but then you can strategize from there).</p>
