[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][b]An auto-admit for top 5% or top 10% from MD high schools to UMD would make it much harder to get in, even in-state. All the kids right at the cusp of that class rank would struggle when they normally would consider UMD a safety. Look at UT Austin, all the non auto-admit in state kids are struggling to get in like never before.[/quote] In Texas., that has resulted in some parents moving their kid from a high-performance high school to a low-performance one so their kid could make the percentage cut. Also, some kids in low performance schools make the cut but find themselves in over their head at college. There is no perfect system.[/quote]
