[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I keep seeing this thread pop up and every time I can't help but think who the hell does UVA think they are? You are a state school in a podunk town with a mediocre football team - basically a virgin who can't drive. AP's in all five or you're not good enough for us? Ok! I will make my way to all of the other amazing state schools in VA and not even apply to your boring, overrated school. Sit and spin, UVA. [/quote]

Ok bye . Pretty sure UVA expecting students to have challenged themselves and done well in all core areas is because they want the best group academically that they can get, and they are being fair-ish to all high schools by expecting the best within the context of the hs. They want the cream of the crop and they get all but the top sliver (who go to ivies/t15). They are by academic metrics of students and faculty one of the top handful of public schools in the country, and their compete well with other 20-30 ranked privates. They want the best. It is not about sports good grief. Mine do not go there —they picked ivies—but our whole family recognizes that UVA is a top school and has every right to be picky and want the best academically ready kids they can get. [/quote]

Ok, sweetie. [/quote]
