Good ECs but not quite T20-level ACT Scores; accepted to great schools already but wants to shoot for the stars [TX resident, 4.0 GPA, top 2% rank, 32 (33 superscore) ACT]

So there are a variety of very good LACs with deadlines of January 15th. My S24 is applying to Carleton and Haverford, and there are Grinnell, Macalester, Oberlin, Kenyon, and many more I am forgetting.

Maybe too small, and maybe your kid would just prefer Plan II (which is totally fine). But I thought I would mention it in case it hasn’t been ruled out yet, if only to give a little more choice.
