[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP here. I’m saying what if a UC kid gets a 1100 SAT and is a C student. What do they do in 2021? [/quote]

I have an average student.  He got mainly B and C grades.  He only received an A in PE and some other electives he was able to pick.  Core classes, the ones he was required to take for graduation that he had zero interest in, he received a C.  Those he had a bit of interest in, like history, he'd get a B.

Anyway, his SAT was just slightly higher than that at 1240.  He hates taking long standardized tests.  His GPA when applying was 2.3 and his end of the year GPA was 2.4.

Here are the colleges he applied to and the results:

JMU (waitlisted - he didn't want to go here, but his girlfriend wanted him to apply b/c she's going there) 
GMU (waitlisted then accepted)
WVU - accepted
CNU - accepted
ODU - accepted
LSU - accepted
Pitt - accepted
Univ. of Kansas - accepted
Co. State Univ. - accepted
FSU (his reach) - rejected

So, as you can see, there are still some decent universities for average students.
