[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]How strong are Florida public k-12 schools? I have heard they are pretty weak. Your DMV educated kid will have to do group projects with them. [/quote] Florida has APs too and you need a high SAT score for UF. The weak FL kids are not getting into UF.[/quote] Even very strong Florida students are not getting in (including NMFs). It's mainly because UF is the school that most Florida kids want to go to - and as it's reputation has climbed nationally, it's become even more popular (not just with Florida kids but also OOS kids). In fact, if you go on Florida college parent boards, you'll see Florida parents upset that an OOS "took their kid's spot." Obviously, it doesn't work that way, but people in Florida take UF incredibly seriously (more so than VA residents getting upset if their kid didn't get into UVA). I think the acceptance rate this year will be around 15%. [/quote]
