[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Schools like UGA, Purdue, UW Madison, and UIUC are extremely hard to get into now. I know people with straight As and 1500+ SAT scores who got denied from these places, even in-state. For engineering, UIUC has a sub 10% acceptance rate. You have to be a top student to get into these state flagships [/quote] Sure but that does not change the fact that they are safeties for the very top students, just as UVA is for the top few students in each high school in state. [/quote] NP. Ah, good old DCUM intentionally and hyperbolically misconstruing "safety" to stir the pot. You know full well they are not "safeties." You want to call them targets, go ahead I guess, but "safety" would be foolish.[/quote]
