[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]When u cite 75th percentile of GPA & SAT, it really helps if u clarify if those refer to applicants, acceptances, or enrollees.[/quote] If you are referring to SCHEV, those stats are gleaned from incoming students and published usually around October. . 75th percentile means 25 percent had higher; median covers next two quadrants, the bottom 25% are often but not always where the legacies . They are all enrolled students[/quote] Look closely at percentage submitting scores.[/quote] +1. Unless you look very closely, average test scores are extremely misleading for everyone but Ferrum College, which last year was still requiring all applicants to submit them.Ferrum's 75/50/25 of 1190/1040/920 looks pretty low compared to VCU's 1290/1160/1040, until you realize that barely a quarter of applicants submitted test scores to VCU. (Either that, or Ferrum screwed up their data submission.)[/quote]
