[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Although a 1320 is below average at UVA for reported scores, I would think it is well in the range for TO applicants. [/quote]

It’s low even for them.  [/quote]

Ha, you are extremely wrong. My nephew got in last year TO with a high gpa and rigor, 4s and 5s on AP exams, and his SAT score was 1080. Some kids don’t test well and those are the ones who apply TO. [b]A 1320 is close to the 25th percentile for SUBMITTED scores at UVA, [/b]why would you think it is low “even for them” (those who choose not to submit)?[/quote]

This is actually horrifying. Kids with 1500+ getting rejected at UVA at our private. 1080 is LOW and means that high GPA is inflated. [/quote]

Considering the material on the tests, AP exams should be more important than the SAT at top schools.

Not true, last fall's entering class had an SAT at 1510 at the 75th percentile, a 1470 at the median, and a 1410 at the bottom 25th percentile.  See SCHEV. [/quote]

What are you talking about? UVA is test optional. Follow along. Those scores do not represent all the kids at UVA with scores like the PP (1080 SAT). That is awful. UVA should feel ashamed and start requiring scores again. What a joke. [/quote][/quote]
