<p>VT’s stats in state can be largely regional. What passes for one area wouldn’t get a second look in another. Does your school use Naviance? Try to get online access, or talk to your GC, and find out what the most successful candidates from your school specifically have looked like in the most recent admission cycles. I can tell you that students from our school rarely get an acceptance with less than a 4.0/2000. They then go to VT and find that the rest of the state is much different. This information is therefore of little use to you and any comparisons would be incorrect.</p>

<p>This will give you GENERAL guidelines, but again I’d like to stress how regional this can be.</p>
