<p>For example, those with a 750+on CR are accepted at a 17% rate. In contrast, those with a 700-740 are accepted at a 10% rate. In other words, the 750+ scores are accepted at rate ~70% higher than the slightly lower scores (700-740). And the top band is accepted at a rate twice that of CR scores from 660-690 (7% acceptance.) Similar disparities are found for W & M.</p>
