[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Emory’s stats just arent that impressive. 80% of class in top 10% class rank. Average gpa sub 3.8. Not exactly the best students [/quote]
What school does your kid go to? Either way GPA is meaningless in today's America. Being in the Top 10% just means who cheated more with AI. GPA avgs have risen as test scores have dropped. Whether this is admitted or Enrolled its impressive nonetheless as enrolled stats dont drop much at most schools. The schools 25th is higher than Every school in the south's  median thats not Duke, Vandy, or Rice. Its very much those 4 schools and then the others. [/quote]

But Emory admits a large percent of the class test optional, so how are the listed scores even relevant? They are artificially elevated.why do people not understand this?[/quote]
It's relevant because[b] if you aren't URM or hooked,[/b] you aren't getting in TO, and Vanderbilt has more TO students.  [/quote]

Wrong.

Based on pure numbers, more unhooked white kids get admitted TO.

What Emory numbers would you be privy to? Because an admissions officer during the Spring into Emory said URM were more likely to be TO. [/quote]
