<p>Alright, then. Good luck at UVA!</p>
<p>lol, he totally ignores the point of the post, where I stated that we're trying to give an accurate opinion about admissions to UVA, and instead accuses me baseless things. This is not even worth being discussed further, as the original purpose has been taken off focus.</p>
<p>am i ignoring the point...i was admitted into UVA with the scored i have listed</p>
<p>so depending on what school he applies to (as you have so successfully pointed out) the scored needed to gain admissions into UVA varies.</p>
<p>correct me if im wrong, but in order to gain admissions into UVA...one does not NEED to have an ivy league transcript...it depends on what you want to do.</p>
<p>so thank you for being so open minded.</p>
<p>of course doogie, you don't need an transcript like the majority of people who apply to schools like penn or brown. but neither do some people at penn or brown have transcripts that should allow them to be there...</p>
<p>every school has some people who attend with scores below the norm, and scores above the norm. I havn't look at your scores - too lazy to flip back a page - but i get the impression you had scores below the average for UVa. It doesn't mean you weren't qualified or anything - it just means that the average applicant/admitee had better scores than you. Doesn't mean you don't belong here. </p>
<p>But hey, if a kid from my senior class in high school can go to harvard with a 1150 on his sats, and an 84 gpa because he plays football, then anyone can go anywhere.</p>
<p>Every school has a wide variety of applicants. At UVa, the nursing school applicants tends to get the weakest applicants - even though that school admits the lowest % of applicants - about 20%. The engineering school has at least the best scores on the SATs and accepts nearly 55% of the applicants.</p>
<p>the point of this thread was to provide interested students with a general idea of what you need to get into UVa. The point of my post was to show that it depends on what you want to pursue at the university.</p>
<p>the point of this thread has shifted to busting on you - and i think its extremely amusing and would like to continue.</p>
<p>doogie, the typical admitted OOS student does not have stats like yours. You are an outlier. You applied to a school at UVA that got 2.2% of UVA's applications. While one does not necessarily need to fit the profile of the typical Ivy Leage acceptee to be accepted as an OOS applicant at UVA, it certainly helps. People with good numbers and other credentials do better in admissions than those who don't. No one insulted you in the first place. You, on the other hand, have insinuated that others are insecure, closed-minded, misleading and malevolent. That is not the case.</p>
<p>cavalier you're a little off. I'm being malevolent.</p>
<p>Doogie - whatre u doing at UVa. JEEBUS. ;-)</p>
