[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Michigan's undergrad population is woefully weak compared to stronger, usually private, seletive colleges. 40% of Michigan's freshmen class score below 1340. That is not a bad number, but definitely not elite.[/quote]

You post this made up number on every single thread that mentions Michigan. The 50th percentile is 1470 and probably even higher for 2024. And, for out of state kids, even higher than that (my kid was in mid-1500s) and it was their top choice. Why are you always spreading misinformation about UMich? [/quote]

Direct from University of Michigan's Common Data Set, available at the university website:

https://obp.umich.edu/wp-content/uploads/pubdata/cds/cds_2022-2023_umaa.pdf

SAT
25%     75%
1350    1530

Percent submitting SAT score 52%
Percent submitting ACT scores 18% 
Historically at Michigan about 10% of enrolled freshmen submitted both an ACT and SAT score.

Those students who scored below the 25th percentile are encouraged NOT to submit scores.

No matter how much you hope that it is not true that about 40% of Michigan's freshmen class have mediocre SAT scores, the facts DO NOT LIE.  25 percent of those who did submit scored below a 1350, and most likely a good percentage of the remaining cohort of test optional freshmen were low scorers (otherwise they would have submitted, doh!)

You aren’t even posting the most recent information from the common data set but are citing 2022-23. You are also leaving out the 50th percentile. What is your beef with Michigan? You clearly keep trying to manipulating statistics to prove some kind of point - do you think no one notices this?[/quote]
