[quote=squat250][quote=bearishgurl][quote=squat250]well, he’s filling out applications.
looks like the plan is engineering at CAl Poly pomona, Cal poly SLO…or maybe UC Riverside.
2090 SAT (96th percentile), 3.4 GPA.
5’s on Ap tests, inc chem and physics. finds calculus not hard.
it’s difficult to know where to point your children….
I think it’s going to be ok…but im not sure…thanks for the input…[/quote]
I think Cal Poly will offer your son the best college experience for his field of study. HOWEVER, he will not be able to live at home while attending.
With a 2090 SAT score, he’ll have no trouble at all getting accepted into any of those schools (3.4 GPA be damned).
Go ahead and make application to all. As you know, scaredy, the deadline is looming…[/quote]
im into the cheap live at home thing…
but… maybe the right thing is to just suck it up and send him to cal poly somewhere…and let him go…
makes me sad…
i need him around…[/quote]
Doesn’t he have some younger siblings who can rake and ride a tractor mower, etc, etc??
SLO is a BEAUTIFUL town and it’s really not that far away …
