[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My kid got in OOS last year. The fact that it is an avg school for in state kids and only really competitive for OOS kids was a turn off. Kid turned it down.[/quote]

Mine didn't get in but was accepted OOS to UVA (attending).

UNC is a great school (from what I hear), but I wondered about attending a school where you're likely more qualified than most of your in-state peers due to their policy of favoring in-state applicants.[/quote]

Yes, that was my kid's concern. I'm not saying the NC applicant pool is bad...I'm saying that this concerned my kid whether it would be very obvious that most of the admitted students were admitted based on far lower stats. It was that concern that made the school unappealing. [/quote]

Do you think the same thing about UT Austin? And you are saying exactly that the NC applicant pool is bad. what else could you be saying???

This topic was already hashed out in a thread, like last week. I am sure the same Chapel Hill basher/ NC snob will post about NC kids being dumb and that the 18% state mandated cap means that the freshman class is dumbed down by the in state kids, with ZERO data to back up that claim. [/quote]
