A Statistical Way to Look at College Admissions

<p>stambliark, buddy, I like your statisticall analysis but even you know its obviously flawed due to the obvious problems of class rank... and the fact that some schools value it more than others (ex. Penn does not care if you have a 3.8 UW GPA, if you're not in the top 10% of your class. Im not making this u, look it up). Why dont you e-mail me and we can work on a better statistical method of evaluating. Here's something im thinking of, [(SAT's+2 SATII scores)/5]+a slightly weighted GPA... How we weigh the GPA would be the interesting part, by giving some bonus points to AP/Honors classes. I had the idea of doing this but I never really bothered. Im happy someone else is interested in the statistical aspect of college admissions which I find fascinating. </p>

<p>Anyway, if you're interested in working something out with me e-mail me at <a href="mailto:jdelavalle@hotmail.com">jdelavalle@hotmail.com</a> or simply PM. Thanks, a nice work.</p>
