People really underestimate how hard it is to get into state flagships like UW Madison, Ohio State, or UGA

Anonymous
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.

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.

Still 1300-1470. 1470 being the median at UVA and W&M.

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.
