[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]There's a lot of inflated grades going on there.   :shock: [/quote]

What on earth? There may be, but you couldn’t tell from that data. These are not unique data points— it’s the same 20-30 kids with those high grades. The concept of inflated grades is also irrelevant. It’s the top 10% of the class that gets most of the good admissions, regardless of GPA. [/quote]

I think the point PP is trying to make is that a high GPA paired with a low test score means the grade is inflated.[/quote]

The test scores on this chart are practically useless bc they only reflect the practice test taken at the school unless a student self- reported additional test scores.  My daughter whose college admissions are reflected on this chart (UVA ‘26) never reported her ACT score (34) on Naviance or to her counselor so the only test score on this chart for her are the practice SAT (1250 approximately) she took at school.

And believe it or not, not all smart kids do well on standardized tests. [/quote]
