[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Our school begrudgingly lets us see scattergrams on SCOIR/Naviance. Separate thread on why this school is so innumerate, hating of scores, ranking, data. Here's my question, if a kid is in the range of 75th percentile of admitted GPAs (the smallest square) and 50th on test score, would that re-rate a college with [b]10-15% global acceptance rate[/b] from a reach to a low reach / target? I'm trying to understand how to view this data and practically how to interpret it[/quote] Take Georgetown or Wellesley as examples, their admit rates are in that range. I would say yes, in the context of your school, they become low reach, [b]as long as other parts of the application is as strong as the numbers[/b]. These include [b]rigor, recommendation, and essay[/b].[/quote] And if it's DC's first choice, ED there will likely give you a boost.[/quote]
