Lesser Five vs Top Publics

<p>Mensa, unlike UTA, Cal and UNC, Michigan has a large out-of-state representation. As such, the difference between in-state and out-of-state students is not that big. Don't get me wrong, it is significantly harder to get into Michigan as an out-of-stater because the percentage accepted is lower, but in terms of qualifications, the mean SAT score for in-staters is 1300 and for out of staters is 1350. Like I said, only a small difference. In terms of class rank and GPAs, I would say there is even less of a difference. The main difference is the % accepted.</p>
