<p>SouthernBoy, what about Georgetown (you included DC), Vandy & Emory?</p>
<p>In researching your claim, heres what I came up with
.</p>
<p>Well, this is interesting....quote from W&M's web page:
"The average SAT score of William and Mary's incoming first-year students is higher than that of any other Virginia institution"</p>
<p>heres a link to W&Ms SAT stats, only thru 2003:
<a href="http://www.wm.edu/ir/freshman_profile.htm%5B/url%5D">http://www.wm.edu/ir/freshman_profile.htm</a></p>
<p>The W&M mean SAT for 2003 was 1343, on the steady rise from prior years. Couldnt find anything more current on their web page.</p>
<p>UVA
.2004 = 1330 mean, 1334 in 2003

<p>W&L
.mean not discretely reported, but average of 25% and 75% for 2004 is 1380, and 1375 by the same method for 2003

<p>OK, so I guess that W&Ms web page must refer to public institutions.</p>
<p>Georgetown
..I cant find any current info on SAT scores on their web page, but if one takes the average 2003 25%-75% (from the 2005 USNews), that comes out to 1375.</p>
<p>Vanderbilt
..new freshman class has a 25%-75% average of 1340, so given year-to-year inflation, Id bet W&Ms #s are a bit higher

<p>Emory
.1380 average of their reported range (dont know which year they are referring to, but guessing 2004 or 2005)

<p>Davidson
.we already know their story from Hubbell.</p>
<p>So heres my SAT ranking for Southern schools, including DC & Texas, updated as best I can (& I am assuming Rice & Duke have stayed in their same relative positions):</p>
<ol>
<li> Rice</li>
<li> Duke</li>
<li> Davidson</li>
<li> tie
.W&L, Georgetown & Emory</li>
<li> W&M</li>
<li> Vanderbilt</li>
<li> UVA</li>
</ol>
