<p>and unweighted GPA if you don' t mind.</p>
<p>My son was a 29 ACT and 1340(?) SAT. He submitted both scores.</p>
<p>Now he’s a happy freshman Deac.</p>
<p>UW GPA was 3.65</p>
<p>I’m actually interested in who got in with no scores. As a score optional school I wonder if people with lower stats opted to not submit scores.</p>
<p>Inasmuch as Wake’s 25/75 average CR+M scores went down about 35 points with the introduction of score optional applications for 2008, I’d say a LOT more students are currently studying at Wake who had lower SAT/ACT scores than prior to the policy change.</p>
<p>SAT CR+M 25/75 ave (taken from Common Data Set): </p>
<p>2007: 1320
2009: 1285</p>
<p>At the same time the % of enrolled students in the top 10% of their graduating class went up significantly.</p>
<p>That seems counter intuitive. I suppose it could be that the higher scoring students weren’t submitting the tests…therefore the avg score dropped, while they actually took higher performing students as a whole ???</p>
<p>I would think it’s more likely that the lower scoring students were the ones choosing not to submit scores. Regardless, I believe Wake does require scores from all students but not until after admissions decisions are rendered. That allows them to accurately report their score range even when they are not using them in the admissions process. It seems like they would now be attracting a lot more students who perform well in high school (gpa, rank, etc.) but test poorly on SAT/ACT for whatever reason.</p>
<p>Did NOT have a 31. I didn’t submit my scores.
CR+M= 1260
ACT= Mid/Upper 20s.</p>
<p>I got straight A’s, took challenging classes (AP & Honors), went to a fairly well-known christian high school, was very involved extracurricularly, had a great interview, wrote a good essay, and had great letters of rec. My one downfall was my ACT score… Good thing I didn’t have to send it :)</p>
