<p>Neumes,
I thought someone posted once that a school can buy various levels of packages from Naviance. Like your school, we seem to get the whole kit and kaboodle of data. Our school has eight years of data, divided up into the old 1600 SAT (2005-prior) and current 2400 SAT (the last two years). </p>
<p>Our data is compiled into larger groups and sorted into interesting charts (i.e., where else kids who applied to School X also sent apps), but there are also the scattergrams where one can see each applicant (anonymously) plotted by SAT and GPA. Having the 2400-based data as a separate scattergram is especially helpful, as it captures the new scoring methodology as well as the increased competitiveness of the pool in the past couple of years.</p>
<p>This was very helpful in seeing which schools were truly safeties, reaches, and don’t bothers – with this caveat – within the context of this particular school, what it has to offer, and the students who attend.</p>
