[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]135 NNAT 126 coGat 13 GBRS chances of getting in the first round?[/quote]

I would say yes.[/quote]

Thank you![/quote]

What are the chances when those scores are reversed, and the CoGat is the higher of the two?  I'm unclear as to how these things are weighted.[/quote]

If one of the test scores is above cut off and gbrs is decent, you’re most likely in.

If the higher score is cogat, then your chance is greater than the nnat being higher than cogat. [/quote]

I know the GBRS score is on a 16 scale, but what goes into it?  I saw on another thread that there was something about Ability to Learn and one other thing.[/quote]
