[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]If he has an opportunity to attend UT (especially over High Point) then absolutely take it. If he is in any way considering High Point due to political leanings, he will have all the connections he needs (be it right or left) through UT.

I seriously don't know how this is a question. [/quote]

Full scholarship sports recruit versus [b]going to a school 50 percent of his classmates are attending[/b] [/quote]

More like 6 percent. Very difficult to get into UT-Austin in-state if you aren't a class rank auto admit.[/quote]

Depends on the school, 50 percent of kids who applied at my kid’s school were accepted and about half will go! [/quote]

What school is this?[/quote]

Highland Park- the numbers are extremely misleading. Only 6% get in by auto admit but the percentage is MUCH higher by regular admission for instate at many high schools. Ask for the stats from your school if you don’t believe me if you’re in state. [/quote]

I am pretty familiar with HP. You are saying 200 kids get in every year? I don't think so. Maybe into CAP and the other UT system schools.

And it is not MUCH higher at many high schools. A few yes. [/quote]

I am saying half of the class applies and half will get in. UT Austin. Stats are extremely misleading. 6 percent is JUST autoadmit, if you’re at a high achieving HS about 50 percent will get accepted. I didn’t believe it either until I saw the reports showing how many applied and how many got in. [/quote]

Show your work on this?  It's just not accurate.[/quote]
