[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This stats aren’t really helpful, because they report the university as a whole. Many programs are either easier or more difficult.  VT engineering is much higher than the numbers reported for VT as a whole. [/quote]

Special programs everywhere usually require higher scores than the average at any college I would assume.  However, they can serve as a general idea.

UVA has engineering too, and their average is still higher than Tech.  W&M has no engineering, and they are right there with UVA.  You will never have true apples to apples without all the details.

Just look at the college your kid is interested in how they'd fit into the general profile and then make adjustments for special programs and hooks.

Wow. W&M with no engineering actually has almost identical SATs and GPAs as UVA— and higher 75% GPAs. And identical ACTs.  With about the Sam percentage of kids reporting test scores. So much for being a second chance for kids not admitted to UVA. [/quote]

W&M has lower SATs at the 50th and 25th percentile [/quote]
