NOVA is very competitive for UVA and VT. You or your son needs to ask the counselor what the approximate rank is (or look on the school profile and see if you can figure out an estimate). We are not in Nova but are familiar with some schools there: between 10-30% can get into UVA depending on the school: course rigor plus rank both matter a lot. The counselor should be able to give you a good idea of chances so you can plan OOS backups if it doesn’t work out. On the other hand, he could get the good news that it is a “likely”, in which case his list doesn’t beed to be as long.
