[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Two different things. A high GPA is evaluated as compared to your peers in your school. A high GPA may not be high if your school has severe grade inflation. SAT score is evaluated across the country. A mediocre SAT score indicates how you compare to the applicant pool. They are used in different contexts.[/quote] They also evaluate your SAT in the context of your school. If you are from some rural high school where the average SAT score is 970, then colleges will be much more excited about your 1300 than they would about a kid from McLean HS who scores 1300 (average for that school).[/quote] [b]I doubt it these days there are schools average at 970.[/b] I would estimate nation wide average is at 1200.[/quote] try for a moment imagining all the states that exist beyond the DMV bubble. There you go..[/quote]
