My daughter took the ACT in June and almost got a perfect score, 35 out of 36. It was the first time she took it, and she didn’t have any special tutoring.

So far, she’s been offered a full out of state tuition to University of Alabama.

She’s not applying to the Ivies. She’s visited Duke and Stanford and she just wants to be at a larger university.

I’m really proud of her!!

Duke, Stanford, or Alabama - tough choice.

Duke has a gorgeous campus and they’re big time in NCAA basketball, but other than that I’d have a hard time saying it was a larger university. Enrollment is dwarfed by some of the state universities.

As well you should be, but let's not forget how she reached this point.

First, you gifted her with your genes and then you provided her with an upbringing that allowed her to flower.

Congratulations "luckystarmom" on a job well done. (I hope she has siblings.)

Has anyone suggested Hillsdale College?

It's been referred to as the conservative Harvard. The only drawback might be that it's not in the South.
