It's a sliding scale. The test score is set so they know what the class grade needs to be to bring his core GPA up enough for him to clear.

It is a sliding scale which means if his test score was higher, his gpa could be lower. Weird choice of words by 247 because obviously if he had the test score he Needed to enroll, he wouldn’t be retaking classes. Smart move is retake the test and class(es). Fair warning, it’s these types of situations where the NCAA will critique and flag his academics and look with a fine tooth comb instead of rewarding a prospect with his extra effort into obtaining acceptance into college. Sometimes I swear they are anti “student”.

Exactly what I was thinking. Hard for me to imagine they won't flag an online summer course he needed to raise his core GPA.

There's not enough time to retake the ACT/SAT and ensure the score is released and clears in time to enroll for summer classes. He can take a class and make the grade he needs to balance the scale. NCAA certification is always a hurdle, which is why cutting it this close is never a good thing.

I've never understood why the test take so long to grade. I mean it's a computer graded test.

Not Nick, he will definitely have better info but I've been following best that I can.
They haven't found them but a break in the rain has allowed a renewed effort in pumping water out. They also have a new plan of finding the primary source of the flooding in an effort to divert.

They have found an opening in a different area that they are exploring in hopes of a connection to the primary site.

That’s pretty much where we are at.

Christians of the city are gathering in the soccer stadium this afternoon to collectively pray for the situation.

That's great man, still holding out hope. If they found an unflooded area..
Just hope they believe people are looking.
