[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It's baffling that Michigan and UNC are ranked so high compared to UVA. In Virginia, Michigan is regarded as a safety school and UVA is much better. UVA has a much lower acceptance rate and the SAT scores are much higher, this ranking is a joke.[/quote]

In Virginia (VA resident for 26 years), Michigan is regarded as a better school in general than UVA and UVA has a higher acceptance rate than Michigan. UVA should be ranked around 30.[/quote]

Nope. It's much harder for a VA kid from NoVA to get into UVA than UMich.  Half our neighborhood is attending UMich currently and the parents would have much rather have saved a ton of $$$ if they could have gotten into UVA and have said as much.[/quote]

And, my friends from AA say it's the EXACT SAME there re getting into UMich. Your point....[/quote]

[b]Overall, there is a bigger gap in gpa/test scores between in state and out of state students in Michigan than Virginia.  You can look it up if you like.[/quote][/b]

That is quite true. It's much easier to get in in-state to Michigan.  They need top students.  Which is why it has 50% OOS and no (?) other state flagship does.  Michigan needs those high stat kids from OOS and international[/quote]
