[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Why Univ of Florida is ranked at 30? The average SAT is 1360 while that from UMCP is 1410. And the individual programs (cs, econ, math) look flimsy. [/quote] Are you looking at admitted or enrolled scores for both schools? Admitted is always higher. And remember, the Florida schools have not gone test optional. They can’t prevent “exceptional talents,” like football recruits from bringing down the average. [/quote] Florida has the "Bright Futures" scholarship which keeps a lot of strong students in-state at the top schools and also increases the Pell Grant recipients there--that combination works well for USNews even if their students' stats aren't quite as high. [/quote] UMD also has attracted many strong in-state students. About slightly less than half of the Blair/RM magnets graduates went to UMD this year. [/quote]
