[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Emory’s stats just arent that impressive. 80% of class in top 10% class rank. Average gpa sub 3.8. Not exactly the best students [/quote]
What school does your kid go to? Either way GPA is meaningless in today's America. Being in the Top 10% just means who cheated more with AI. GPA avgs have risen as test scores have dropped. Whether this is admitted or Enrolled its impressive nonetheless as enrolled stats dont drop much at most schools. The schools 25th is higher than Every school in the south's  median thats not Duke, Vandy, or Rice. Its very much those 4 schools and then the others. [/quote]

But Emory admits a large percent of the class test optional, so how are the listed scores even relevant? They are artificially elevated.why do people not understand this?[/quote]
Emory has fewer TO students than Vandy. [b]What are you talking about? And they increased the number of test submitters this year by a ton.[/b] [/quote]

Do you have link for this? I don't believe they have released the number of students that were admitted this past cycle that were test optional yet (if so, please link)  But, these are the numbers for the previous year.

From Emory 2024-2025 CDS
Total first time, first year admitted and enrolled 1,438
Of those who actually enrolled and submitted test scores:

Submitting SAT Scores 623
Submitting ACT Scores 286 = 909 Total

So, 529 students out of a class of 1,438 were admitted without submitting scores.  That's 37% of the entire admitted class that did not submit test scores.

In addition, some kids submit both SAT and ACT scores, so it's fewer than 909 who submitted scores.[/quote]
Thats not how that works they're using highest submitted score. Thus aren't double counting [/quote]
