[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Every school will either not report GPA on the CDS, or report it in the way that is most favorable to the school. This means, not every admitted student's GPA is listed (hence there new creative categories of admitted students). Zero transparency. This is why people feel admissions is a crap shoot because you really don't know what any school's actual range is for reach/safety/target. [/quote] I just looked at a school in the Lehigh, Villanova, Colgate tier of school . . . . and for 22-23, something like 40% had a 3.75-3.99. 20% had 3.5-3.75. And almost 10% had below 3.5. I was pretty surprised by those numbers. And who is making up the below 3.5 gpa at a school like that?? (I do realize other factors apply depending on the school - legacy, athletics, ECs). But I was expecting 90%+ at over 3.8 GPA. (And I am supposing these were UW grades). [/quote]
