Chances at top schools, will chance back!

<p>sorry but i dont really know these colleges that well. however, ur sons SAT score will stand out the most in his application. the GPA will hurt a little bit, especially at wake forest, pomona, swathmore, claremont, tufts, and at boston. best of luck to your son!</p>

<p>I actually know some of these schools so Ill chance what Ive looked into. and done research on/ visited.
Carleton- reach, GPA is the culprit, high SAT will help, but w/o an amazing volunteer effort of some sort it will be a reach. I visited here/ am in comm. with an adcon.
William and Mary (OOS)
Swathmore (just for kicks)- reach, might as well
Grinnell- match
Pomona- reach
Wake Forrest- reach
Claremont Mckenna- high reach
Tufts- reach
Boston College- potential low reach, EC’s and essays as well as stellar reccs + great SAT will be a good thing.</p>

<p>As for Carleton, they told me they love to see leadership positions and upward trend in grades as well as sincere effort put into ECs and essays as well as a focused passion and something unique the applicant can bring to the table.</p>

<p>chance back
