<p>Just like the title asks.</p>
<p>For example though, being 100% positive that someone with a 32 ACT and 3.75 GPA will get into a school where the average is a 25 ACT and 3.3 GPA</p>
<p>Do you have access to Naviance? Some schools are absolutely predictable, that over the past four years every last applicant from our high school with a GPA over a certain number has been accepted. Generally, the more selective, the less predictable, because there are so many rejections, even for applicants with very strong numbers.</p>
<p>I wish I did have Naviance, unfortunately my school doesn’t.</p>
<p>Some schools are very driven by hard numbers and those schools are more predictable than the holistic ones. At schools with holistic admissions, people with relatively high stats might get rejected or waitlisted based on specific qualities or histories or other blips in the application that would not be taken into consideration at a larger or less personal institution. Also, many schools are not need-blind. That means applicants with need with higher stats can be rejected in favor of others with lower stats who are full pay.</p>
