Fall 2010 class data finally up

Colleges and Universities A-Z University of Wisconsin
1

<p>25-75 ranges</p>

<p>SAT 1150-1420 2009- 1170-1390 M+V
ACT 26-30 2009-26-30</p>

<p>Not much overall change--high end of SAT was up and low end down a bit maybe reflecting more OOS students from different backgrounds incl internationals.
No change in average GPA 3.69 UW</p>

<p>Percent scoring over 700 on Math went up from 37.5% to 44.7% but English *(CR) fell from 16.8% to 14.7%. More engineering majors/internationals?? </p>

<p>But on the ACt the % scoring over 30 in Eng went up from 39.5 to 41% and math went way up from 34.2% to 38.1%.</p>

<p>So overall UW IS getting more high ability students using test scores.
At the low end (under 24 ACT) only 5.9% were in that group compared with 7.5% in 2009. Also the % taking the ACT went up a bit.</p>

<p>Thanks for the info.</p>

<p>Remember UW applicants- these are the middle half of the student body stats. 1/4 will have stats below these (and above) so don’t get discouraged if yours are a bit below them. Also- no guarantees of admission if your stats are in or above the middle half. There are other factors considered. Useful, though, in knowing if you are competitive.</p>

<p>Remember that most Wisconsin (and Minnesota, Illinois) residents are likely to have taken the ACT.</p>
