920 is the minimum SAT score allowed at UGA. They for sure take kids sub 1200 excluding the usual sub par athletes.

They do cap oos admits to roughly 20% so I am sure that oos admits without hooks need higher than 1200.

1200 can get in at UGA, bottom 25% is 1220-1300. It's not an academically hard school with lots of grade inflation.

No, that's not true. My kid in MoCo is also interested in UGA. Naviance showing lots of acceptances of kids with mid-1200s SATs and 3.8 unweighted GPA.

Don't confuse that poster's fantasy with facts.

The fantasy is a 1200 getting in UGA. UGA kids are smart and fun. Sorry your kid is either a nerd or dumb.

Yeah, sure. UF, Vandy, UGA and Texas must be the same as Bama and Ole Miss in your pea sized brain. Your ignorance is showing.

UGA is closer to Bama and Ole Miss than Vandy, UT-Austin and UF

Cite?

Same. Also, my kid did not find Athens all too great.

Where did he end up? Doesn’t sound like UGA was really even close to what he wanted, and that’s okay.

My kid graduated from MCPS 4 years ago. Even then, the Naviance data was pretty clearly old for several schools. If you can filter based on year of graduation, that's a better representation. Naviance data is self-reported, so the user has no idea about much of anything, quite honestly, other than MCPS GPA and maybe test scores. (And if the student reported an accurate response for their acceptance.)

The Georgia official report, linked elsewhere in this thread, for OOS is a much better source.

Not everyone. But dressing nice is not a bad thing. People that take pride in their appearance do better in life. Being a slob is out of style.

Thanks country club cuck!

How you dress is a reflection of self esteem. You can look great in a thrift store outfit. Sorry you missed that lesson or just don’t feel good about yourself.

Look at the stats on UGA’s blog for OOS. Somebody is wrong and I’m guessing the self reported Naviance is wrong or skewed due to a recruited athlete or something like that.
