[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]1) Don’t lie. Leave blank if you don’t want to answer. 2) For those saying ethnicity/race do not matter more than half the schools my kid looked at on Naviance have it as a factor that has MORE weight than her GPA. So she is supposed to believe that they all just forgot to remove after SCOTUS ruling, yeah right. Sample: Application Factors These are the factors that XXX College considers when evaluating applicants. Very Important Character/Personal Qualities Curriculum Rigor/School Record Ethnicity Interview Recommendations Work Experience Important GPA[/quote] No idea how much schools consider race. But gpa is almost meaningless when compared across schools— too many variations in how schools grade and calculate gpa. This doesn’t mean that they don’t compare grades among students in the same school (paying close attention to rigor). But gpa itself doesn’t hold much weight.[/quote]
