[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I don't give a fig about Ivy admissions. What freaks me out is that only 30 of 103 applicants from Yorktown (29%) made it in to William and Mary, if these numbers to be believed. That is FAR less than 10% of the class. And 44 our of 160 made it into UVA -- again, well fewer than 10% of the class. It is hard for me to believe that most of the top 10% is not applying to these two excellent state schools. [b]The oft-repeated adage from this forum that UVA and W&M will take everyone in the top 10% just doesn't seem to hold true, at AL[/b]L. [/quote] What is true is that in order to be accepted, a student is typically in the top 10% but certainly UVA and W&M do not accept everyone in the top 10% and I have never seen that said anywhere. I know many in the top 10% who were not accepted at one or the other, including my oldest who graduated from W-L in the top 10% a few years ago and was rejected by UVA and waitlisted by W&M.[/quote]
