[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]USNWR ranks service academies amongst national LACs, [b]but this makes no sense[/b] given their specialized purpose, the narrow opportunities for application, and their relatively low test scores. Perhaps, they excel at upward social mobility, but the quality of student - based on test scores - pales in comparison to the schools they’re typically ranked amongst (LAC top 10). For example, most service academies have SAT 25/75 around 1200/1400. That means the top 25% of academy kids are the 25th percentile of the schools they’re ranked amongst. Makes no sense. Thoughts?[/quote] Okay. [/quote]
