[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]So, it's getting pretty ridiculous in Virginia. UVA and W&M are very difficult to get into. VT and JMU are trending upwards of being very difficult for a lot of kids to get into as well (thanks Covid, Common App, and OOS applicants). Where do kids who have a 3.5-3.8 GPA go? GMU, CNU, VCU, UMW, Longwood? You don't hear about a lot of kids going to Radford or ODU. Virginia had such great colleges, but it's becoming very difficult for a B-B+ kid to get into one of them.[/quote] Is this because half the graduating class has a 4.0 these days? Back when I was in school out of 600 kids maybe 2 did, and only 5% of the class even had an A average. I can't help but wonder if all this grade and test inflation makes it harder to differentiate top students and creates this sense that its harder when it's just harder to identify the top students.[/quote]
