<p>On prior posts, many students were saying that Wake's accepted average for this years incoming class (2005/2006) was 1380, and their acceptance rate had dropped to !!!) and their average SAT is 1325. I really don't care about the mistake, (as it is better for my son, and he loves the school for what it offers academically) but I would like to know: where do people get their information?? It seems strange that people seemed so sure></p>
<p>yaaa ive read that like their middle 50% was like 1280-1380 or sumthinling along those lines...but particularly for this school ive gotten a mix of different averages on this website!</p>
<p>I haven't seen any stats for the incoming class, but I just checked the online fact book, and the average SAT score for the current sophomores was 1315, up from 1309 for the current juniors. For each of the last four years, the SAT average has shown an increase of about six points (before that, the trend doesn't hold), and so I can only assume that Wake is looking to keep increasing the average SAT. For tons of demographic information, go to <a href="http://www.wfu.edu/administration/ir/factbook.html%5B/url%5D">http://www.wfu.edu/administration/ir/factbook.html</a> and click on the 2004/2005 factbook (or any of the earlier ones if you want to go back that far to check trends).</p>
<p>Thank-you so much Ginnyvere! You are great about trying to help out! Best of luck this coming year. Thanks again.</p>
<p>No problem. Thanks for the good wishes. With the schedule that I've got coming, I'm probably going to need it (I just have to keep reminding myself that taking these courses this year means, with any luck, going abroad next year).</p>
<p>I'm guessing that the accepted student average was 1380 and that those students who were accepted who decided to attend is the 1325 you mention.</p>
<p>I'd guess that all school have a higher accepted SAT average than the actual enrolled average.</p>
<p>The brightest kids always have other options.</p>
<p>1325 would still be a sign that they are becoming more competitive.</p>
