GPA is the early indicator which may be confirmed by scores. Both will be required to be tippy top for those tippy top academic schools.
Virtually no sophomores will have scores (and even fewer baseball players). Mine took his ACT September junior year (earliest kid in his school); most will retake until either getting the score needed or realizing that score is not to be made. (And, that is the reason that whatever pitter patter goes on between an Ivy coach and a player is meaningless; if I had a dollar for every missed parental score prediction, i could buy a lot of Starbucks. GPA is simply not a good enough early proxy for those schools. Any family hearing "offer" before a complete academic picture has been sketched is hearing things - or is setting themselves up for a huge unpleasant surprise.)
