[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]PP with the UVA b/g twins. My DD had a slightly lower GPA but still within range for UVA (though the bottom of the range). Their scores were very similar. They both participated in the same sport and both were captains but my DD also had a different sport outside of school which she competed at the national level on.

They were (and are) very different. I think in truth my DD got into UVA because of her brother - she would also say that. I think she'd have been waitlisted if she wasn't a twin simply because her GPA while good put her out of the top 5% of the class - just barely. Her brother was a solid yes due to his class rank and GPA.

Not to be dense, but how did admissions know they were twins? I can't imagine admissions are looking for kids with the same last name and checking to see if they share a birthdate?

You have to select in the common app, i believe, if you have a sibling also applying. So yes they know there are siblings or multiples.[/quote]
