[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]a kid on my street with 4.2 gpa 1400+ sat and on football team didn't get in. is this due to NOVA penalty?[/quote] I also know a kid with similar stats that was admitted as a freshman last year to a highly selective college. When I last spoke to his dad, he was failing his first semester at school. Being an athlete is tough for sure, but I also know that this kid had a relatively easy schedule in high school that led to a very high GPA. Now, clearly he's no dunce, he did pretty well on the SAT. [b]But a 4.2 is not all the same across the board.[/b][/quote] Even in a very competitive HS? I have no idea whether he's a top ten or top twenty student, but what else must UVA want? Some kind of a hook? [/quote]
