Says the one who said “Did not think that choosing between all these schools(Harvard/UVA/Michigan would be so hard.” I can’t imagine how hard of a situation you must have right now lol. Maybe don’t be so pretentious

My son hasn’t gotten an email yet- it just says on his main portal page that an update was last posted 2/4/22. And then you click “view update.” Good luck!!
I am not sure you can assume that–at the top private I know as well as a top public magnet, about 1/3 of the top kids do not apply to UVA. Its only 2 schools but still, there are many other Virginia schools that likely have a similar mix of students that would not apply to UVA.
Yes, I think he will succeed wherever he ends up, but I didn’t think he would get rejected or deferred by all his reach and target schools so far with his stats. Hope he can land one of the deferrals.
Go on the premed threads here. It all depends. I placed out of calculus and Chem and went to med school just fine as did many of my classmates and I know that is possible at many schools including the ones you mention. You typically do have to take an upper level Chem year /and maybe biochem and more math–but premed advising is excellent at the schools you mentioned and likely the vast majority of schools that send a good amount to med school. Worry about that later: many premeds change their mind after the first yr or two of college.
Yes, Great students are successful no matter what school they attend. In other words…The students make the school and not the other way around!! Again, Best of luck to your son!!!
