DS had his interview last week with a panel of 6. I am concerned about two of the questions he was asked.
1) Have you taken the SAT/ACT again since you submitted your application to try and raise your scores?
DS took the ACT and got a 36 English and 35 Math with 34 Composite. When these scores are converted to SAT scores, they equal 800/800 and a 2260. My DS didn't want to sound arrogant or disrespectful and point this out, so he just replied "no I haven't" to the question. Ugh, I'm sorry, just venting here... I am just a little surprised and frustrated. Shouldn't the people on the panel who are reviewing these applications know about how test scores work?
2) What "Level" NROTC scholarship were you awarded? DS replied a 4-year Tier 1 Scholarship. But then he was asked again, what level? DS said he wasn't aware of a level.
What level would they be referring to? When DS came home we looked at the website, letter and information that came in the mail regarding scholarship, and couldn't find mention of a level anywhere, besides 4-year scholarship, Tier 1.
