You paid 200k for your son to go to LSU?
Drop your email. I have several business ventures and/or real estate deals that I think you'd be VERY interested in.

I think a 23 act and mediocre GPA isn’t a sure thing these days but I might be wrong
2026 is the largest HS graduating class in history. UT overflows to aTm. aTm overflows to LSU. Texas just experienced a huge surge in population. Both schools just announced they are reducing acceptances. So get ready LSU.
I took my 2026’er to tour Ole Miss and Miss State last month. The former must have had 3000 kids that day touring. Enough to fill the basketball arena. About half out of staters. Even Ole Miss isn’t gonna be a sure thing anymore.

23 is considered pretty close to the minimum for entrance. I'd suggest a test prep book and a retake in the Fall.

finally, a poster who admits they have a dumb kid
ACT average in LA is 17.7. Nationally, it is a 19.4. 23 is well above average.

If your kid is from LA they don't want you....you're pond scum. But out of state, they would love your kid...and $$$$$.
this is very true.
unofficial list of their priority:
out of state kids who will pay out of state tuition
minority kids, in state with average to good grades
non-minority kids, in state with average to good grades
now that ACT scores are optional, I don't know how they compare a kid with a good GPA but no ACT score to a kid with an average GPA and a decent ACT score. I would guess race is a factor. Who knows?

You may have that backwards.
No.
There is inflation in ACT scores over last 20-30 years
People that made a 25 in 90s would prob make a 30 today
So OPs son prob would have made around a 20 in 90s
