The competitiveness of college admissions has trickled down to top 50-75 universities. UW Madison, Ohio State, and UGA have turned away students with straight As and a 1500+ SAT score. The average admitted student at UGA has taken at least 11 AP classes. You have to be a top student to get into many of the football schools you see on TV now. |
No. It’s not. These are safeties for middling students. UM UVA are safeties for top students. |
Put the pipe down.
Ohio State accepted 34,370 applicants out of 64,000. |
Middling students don’t take 11 AP classes. |
My dd wants to go to UGA (in her top two choices).
I thought it was for mostly straight As, and ~6 APs — not all As, 11 APs. Is this weighted As (Bs in AP)? |
Yes, they do. You sound like the kind of person who says a 1300 is impressive because it's "96th percentile" or whatever it is. |
CS and Engineering can be like this. |
UGA is 1500+ |
It says here a quarter of the class is coming in with below a ~1200. And the 75th percentile is 1410, which is the 25th percentile at UVA and W&M. https://oir.uga.edu/_resources/files/cds/UGA_CDS_2023-2024.pdf Put down the pipe. |
Look up this year’s stats, idiot. |
Still 1300-1470. 1470 being the median at UVA and W&M. https://news.uga.edu/uga-admits-class-of-2029/amp/ Again I implore you to put down the crack. |
UGA isn’t test optional so you can’t really compare it to TO schools. Nice try, idiot. |
UVA and W&M have been test optional for half a decade, it’s impossible to know what their true bottom 25th percentile actually is at this point. |
Nope. Michigan's out of state admissions is high single digits with over 80,000 OOS applications for 4,000 spots. |
OOS? |
