[quote=Anonymous]OP, I anticipate being in a similar situation to you for my kids. If you look at admitted student profiles across schools in the top 60, say, they are not that different. In fact, I’m shocked at how high they are, with average unweighted GPA’s for the middle 50% at 3.7 to 3.9 and SATs in the 1250-1450 range. But the fact is, those numbers are so high because of grade and test inflation. There really is a difference in how a class is run based on how smart the kids taking the class are, so if I thought smarter kids were at UVA compared to Miami (on the whole of course, not as to a particular kid), and my kid didn’t get a full ride to Miami, that’s worth the extra money to me.
