Where are finding NC state data separated out for engineering? I know UNC is very competitive all around and living in Charlotte makes it more difficult bc they have to take people from all over the state so that makes more sense. Honestly its fine bc he isn’t interested in going to UNC or NC state …
I just feel like he should have the option since we are in state and I think the real problem is a bias against private schools kids. Sorry that we value education so much that we are willing to sacrifice and spend a fortune on private school bc we feel it provides the best possible education. During Covid we definitely got our money’s worth bc our kids went back to school (and played sports) in the fall when public schools remained remote for that entire school year. But my kid isn’t good enough for NC state engineering - sorry but I don’t think so. So don’t bother trying to convince me otherwise.
It’s partly our school’s fault bc it’s much harder to achieve a comparable GPA to our local public schools who send a much higher percentage of kids to the state schools. They literally tell us not to compare GPAs. So they need to be getting that message across to our state schools or adjust our grading system to be comparable to public schools.
