[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]VT does not focus on grades and test scores. I have no idea what they do care about though.[/quote]Grades seemed the most important based on Naviance. It was one of the schools that had an easy to see line - almost everyone got in with a GPA over x and few got in below that number. The Test scores were not as easy to assess. [/quote] It's grades/rigor mainly plus the short answer questions. People don't believe such a big U actually reads the essays but they are clear that those plus grades/rigor are the only application items that are "very important". The other "very important" items are personal factors -- race, first gen, residency. Nothing else is even rated as "important" just "considered" or "not considered" https://aie.vt.edu/content/dam/aie_vt_edu/common-data-set/21-22/first_time_first_year_freshman_admission_21-22.xlsx[/quote]
