So “experience factors” were just a small % of overall score.

Guess the haters will need to find something new to whine about. [/quote]

I don't call 1/3 of the score a small percentage

Also, you have to remember most of these kids have a high GPA and did very well on the problem set so the only differentiator left is the the profile and extra factors[/quote]

90/1125

8% of total max score [/quote]

This is some bad math.  The score is effectively out of 900 points, as that is what is available to all kids with no experience factors.  The minimum possible score is 3.5*75 + 60 + 60 = 382.5.  The maximum is 900.  So, effectively, there is a 517.5 point range between the minimum and maximum possible scores.  Economically disadvantaged isa bonus of 90/517.5 = 17.4% of the total score range.  Kids who are truly economically disadvantaged are likely to also get the 45 points for attending an underrepresented middle school, which would then be a bonus of 135/517.5 = 26% of the available points.

A 3.5 GPA + Economically disadvantaged gives 352.5 points.  
A 3.5 GPA + "underrepresented school" gives 307.5 points
A 4.0 GPA with no experience factors gives 300 points

The experience factors are huge.  [/quote]
