[quote=Anonymous]Disagree with VT doesn’t let in kids with lower stats. I think they are intentionally opening the doors to kids from diverse backgrounds ( and I mean diverse, that’s not a code for any one group, including rural and first gen kids) who have good grades but maybe not as high test scores. They are offering the opportunity and there is a place for most hard working kids. If they are not coming well-prepared from HS or highly able and persistent, they will be bumped into less demanding majors. It spreads out the opportunités, opens new paths, etc. for some, and still has a high caliber student in a number of tough majors. Not trying to say it’s MIT, and who cares? They have lots going on there and plenty of success stories. Continually comparing it with UVA and JMU are immaterial unless you look at specific programs at each school and what your student wants/needs.[/quote]
