[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]If you're interested in what kinds of GPA/scores your kid needs to have a chance at a particular school, the Common Data Set is much more useful that College Confidential. Actual numbers from the entire class for that particular year, not just self-reporting whiz kids.[/quote] cds blows because cds doesn't give the full picture. CDS is useless until it releases admit and matriculation data sets by 'hook' crosstabs. CC profiles give key info. [/quote] Some of you are way too obsessed with "hooks". For most places, they represent only a small percentage of acceptances.[/quote] Actually hooks account for a decent percentage of admits to private universities once you add up all the athletic recruits, legacies and urms. Before someone tries to race bait, the first two are largely whites.[/quote]
