[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This is an honest question How will UMD be able to tell apart a student who gets straight A's every quarter - 98 and then a 97. vs The students that struggle, but retake everything and hand in things late and get a 79.5 and an 89.5 Because on MCPS transcripts without SAT/ACT - these two students look identical. [/quote] As stated above, UMD looks at other factors as well: Important: Class rank Application essay Recommendation(s0 Talent/ability First generation State residency Considered: Extracurricular activities Character/personal qualities Alumni/ae relation Geographical residence Racial/ethnic status Volunteer work Work experience [/quote] Talent/Ability is literally unmeasurable without standardized test scores[/quote]
