[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Like so many straight A students who were chief school newspaper editor, captain of a varsity sports team, volunteering, and more who can't even get to VA Tech. I don't know what people who get into schools like Michigan or the Ivy Leagues are doing in high school. [/quote]

Michigan's acceptance rate is 20%.  25% of the students who even bother to submit an SAT score, scored below a 1350.  So you likely have 40% of Michigan's freshmen class who scored well below what DCUM thinks is a "good" score.[/quote]

Sometimes I think the embellishment of a lot of students and their parents gaslights us into thinking that only the tippiest tippiest top get into decent colleges.  Then along comes facts like this to bring everyone down to earth.[/quote]
Ditto, Michigan is not that competitive to get in. UGA and Clemson less so. Only on DCUM do people think 1350-1400 cannot get you into great schools. Sure they aren’t ivies but so what. [/quote]
