[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I was told the GPA should be a 4.5 when you apply from Northern Virginia high schools.[/quote] This is true. The 75th percentile of entering students at UVA had a 4.5: median was a 4.4: bottom 25th percentile had a 4.2. Generally, if you are an unhooked kid in one of the top NOVA schools you need to be in the 75th percentile which means 4.5+ GPA, 35 ACT, 1510+ SAT. Top 6% rank. 10-12 APs. Most rigorous box checked. This was all born true in the recent EA admissions results thread here wherein every single kid who got into UVA for EA had hit the 75th percentile. [/quote] 1/3 of kids enrolled are test optional, which means their academic ability is much, much lower than a 1510/35. lol. Probably scoring a 1300 on the SAT. I know, I know. There is no grade inflation, GPAs are more accurate than test scores. Just pointing out the flaw in your blather. You are delusional about UVA. Come back when they are TEST REQUIRED.[/quote]
