| thanks! |
| UVA the highest test scores in the state. Obviously |
| Egad. You could rank those schools by % reporting SAT and it would be pretty accurate. |
| This stats aren’t really helpful, because they report the university as a whole. Many programs are either easier or more difficult. VT engineering is much higher than the numbers reported for VT as a whole. |
Blah blah blah. |
Keep telling yourself that |
Special programs everywhere usually require higher scores than the average at any college I would assume. However, they can serve as a general idea. UVA has engineering too, and their average is still higher than Tech. W&M has no engineering, and they are right there with UVA. You will never have true apples to apples without all the details. Just look at the college your kid is interested in how they'd fit into the general profile and then make adjustments for special programs and hooks. |
This is what we learned at a recent VT admissions event. Engineering and business are the most competitive admit at VT. |
No higher than UVA |
| Son exceeded 75th percentile for SAT and GPA at UVA resulting in a WL...don't think I'll be showing him this!! Thanks for providing. |
There is always the competition from the school/city you are at, you are truly competing against. https://research.schev.edu/enrollment/b8_admissions_locality.asp |

This site is better for VT. It allows you to compare college by college, major by major etc. Much more granular than the state site. |
| There’s an error in the Mary Baldwin data. The 75th percentile SAT shown is lower than the median (which is impossible). |
Wow. W&M with no engineering actually has almost identical SATs and GPAs as UVA— and higher 75% GPAs. And identical ACTs. With about the Sam percentage of kids reporting test scores. So much for being a second chance for kids not admitted to UVA. |
