<p>This is a fine SAT score. In fact, it’s more than fine. This student might not get accepted into the Ivy League but he will have good college choices with this SAT score.</p>

<p>Even college students these days are having trouble finding internships and many of them already have experience in a particular field. Please show some evidence that internships “aren’t hard to get”. That is not the experience of many folks these days.</p>

<p>I do hope this is tongue in cheek. MOST 17 year olds don’t have an “interest that overwhelm” them. In fact MOST college students switch majors several times during college. This OP’s son sounds like MANY 17 year olds…he isn’t ready to make a life’s commitment to something yet. So what? He will likely find his long term career somethime in the future and he has every chance of succeeding like most folks who do so after the age of 17.</p>
