Which from your list are the Public Ivies and which are the Public Colleges? I’m not familiar with the terminology you’re using.
@GnocchiB (Update…only 3 Public Ivies)
The Public Ivies are:
- University of Maryland College Park
- Rutgers New Brunswick
- Ohio State University
Public Colleges are:
- Virginia Tech
- North Carolina State University
- Embry-Riddle Daytona Beach
- UT Arlington
- Kent State University
“Public Ivies” are colleges that are comparable with Ivy League colleges such as Cornell, Dartmouth, Yale, and Brown.

I am quite sure that I didn’t mis-bubble as I rechecked the answers after finishing each section.
Thanks for the suggestion…I will ask College Board to do manual scoring. Do they do this for free or is there a fee to it?
@Desi4life, don’t mean to nitpick, but in my experience as a parent of 2 high schoolers and a graduate of an Ivy, “Public Ivies” would be the ones like UC Berkeley, UVa, William & Mary and University of Texas at Austin. You can feel free to call any college by any name/category you’d like, but it helps to get accurate answers and advice if you’re using the same terminology as is commonly used on CC.
Good luck on the ACT tomorrow.

I see what you’re saying. The list of “Public Ivies” differs from person to person as each individual sees very high potential in a different list of colleges. Wikipedia and quite a few other significant websites list UMD-CP, Rutgers, and Ohio State as “Public Ivies”, but I realize that the original list compiled by Richard Moll doesn’t include these colleges. The standings and reputations of colleges change each year, so for a few years, the colleges that I’ve listed have been included in the list of “Public Ivies”. There are around 30 Public Ivies in the US today according to Wikipedia, many users on CC, and other sites. But after all, a college is a college.
Thanks! I will prove myself this time on the ACT
