<p>I don't quite get what you're saying. Numbers are numbers, if you give the mean SAT...you get the mean SAT. You can "round up" to the nearest 2nd decimal place, but that won't really give you a significantly different number. </p>
<p>Do you mean they intentionally make up phony statistics? That's a pretty serious charge there.</p>

For example, the unweighted mean GPA is 3.7... well, does that take into account of the number of AP courses the applicant has taken or not? It doesn't state on the website. It's not specific enough for us to get intimidated by this mean.

<p>???...it's unweighted. By definition doesn't matter if the courses are AP or not, that's the typical understanding of the word "unweighted" :)</p>
