[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It says the state flagship (UVA) is DC’s safety with 93% acceptance chance for the intended major. but people here said the school should be nobody’s safety. So, still confused.[/quote]

Absolutely wrong. There is NO WAY CV lists 93% chance of acceptance for UVA. Wise perhaps. You could list 5.0, 1600, NMSF, ending world hunger, URM, Alumni kid, 1st gen and recruited athlete and the BEST you could hope for is less than 50%.[/quote]

How can you make a statement like this with absolutely no information other than that chancing? Kids do get into UVA so some do have high chances of it.[/quote]

They based their statement on CV. Maybe read it again? NP but it looks like they entered it into the CV chancing simulator. When I change mine to perfect 1600 stats with 20 APs, I have a 46% chance at UVA. I also didn’t change my demographics. If I change it to a very underrepresented demographic, I can get over 50%. Max I see possible with Tier 1 EC is 67%. [/quote]

I did read it. I just meant we didn’t know what they put into the system. I didn’t do the combinations of how many ways you could alter the data to get a result, but as a programmer, you’d need more data to figure out how that number came up. [/quote]
