[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]UVA ED was harder at our school than year’s past. [/quote] Our school's UVA admissions was much easier for the girls and basically non existent for boys. Usually UVA favors girls, along the lines of 3 girls to 2 boys This year was more than a half dozen girls and 1 boy.[/quote] Um maybe because the girls were more qualified? “Favors” lmao[/quote] NP. Girls have, on average, higher GPAs than boys, on average. The heavier GPA weighs in admissions algorithms (vs, say, rigor and math scores), the more girls will be admitted.[/quote] The problem with your hypothesis is that the girls are equal in rigor, have higher GPA, higher Verbal scores, and only slightly lower math scores at the tail so it isn't "because of the algorithm". Overall they are just better prepared and better students.[/quote]
