That would be a nightmare on a small campus like BYU's though
During class changes I can already reach out and touch the person in front of me.

How's his ACT? He may need a 30 or above to get in. Might get in with a 28/29

He's probably good. In Utah or outside?

If your son did any extra-curriculars and doesn't botch the application, I'd bet

BYU's admissions re-weights based on the school the kids attend.

Good Golly....I had a 3.4 with virtually no extracurricular accomplishments.

Yep. Even 10 years ago, school was pretty easy. Can't imagine it's gotten harder

depends on the state. Not all states or even schools are remotely equal

There is some truth to that. Grades have

When I was in high school there were no + or - grades, and an A was 94%+

3.3 back in the 80's and I got a full tuition scholarship

With that ACT? You'd probably still get in.

Maybe. But supposedly they use unweighted GPA as the first filter
LaserCoug

I doubt the the GPA filter is set at 3.3, probably closer to 3.0.

4.0 if you exclude the athletes.

My daughter has a 4.0. I hope that is still good enough in two more years
