<p>mm i'd have to disagree on this one too.</p>
<p>while, yes the sats for incoming engineers is only slighty higher than the average sat of incoming college student, sheer bulk of applications does outnumber it.</p>
<p>if you have the "numbers" to get into uva, you will fair much better off applying to the engineering school then to the college - as they just accept a greater %. Less of a coin flip imo.</p>
