<p>Why is the graph not showing enough students? I see a lot of students applied to a school and not a lot are represented. How do I know if its accurate? Does it just show the recent ones?</p>
<p>People whose profiles are incomplete (missing GPA/SAT score) don’t show up on graphs.</p>
<p>It could also be that some students did not report their results back to the GC. For example - 8 students apply to X University - but only 6 report results - of those - 5 were accepted. The chart will show that 8 applied and 5 were accepted. The scattergram will show 5 accepted and 1 denied. You don’t know the results for the other 2 kids. So - the scattergram will have fewer symbols that the chart shows applications.</p>
<p>thank you very much</p>
<p>Don’t count on Naviance data to be accurate. My son sees entirely different data than his counselor sees when when look at acceptances to elite schools. They were trying to figure out who the mysterious other person was who also got accepted to Brown this year, and with very, very mediocre stats. The counselor finally concluded the mystery person was someone who applied LAST year and didn’t get in.</p>
<p>Of course, if the database for a given college is fairly large, individual data point errors won’t matter much. Just don’t count on those with very low stats to have actually been accepted to top-tier colleges.</p>
<p>After you recieve your decisions you update your “Colleges I’m Applying to” with the decisions. If you don’t then it won’t show up, I guess the people a your school just haven’t updated it yet. Sometimes so few people update that the graph is “restricted due to privacy”. I remember that I was the update that made the Notre Dame graph become public.</p>
