Nice!! Does she love it?!
Absolutely. The best!
25% of Stanford enrollees had over 1560 on SAT.
They admitted 3.9% of all applicants.
They admitted 30% of the few with 1600 SAT.
Rice denied an ED friend of my son who had a 1600 SAT.
UT CAPs many National Merit SemiFinalist applicants. Other schools give huge scholarships to all NMSFs.
It’s a wacky world.
is ut Austin for sure today?
GPAs are insanely inflated and many schools weigh GPAs completely differently
Is it coming out?
Ours only mention UW, teachers refuse to round a 89.7 to 90. Very tough school.
This is a UT forum
I think they mean unweighted GPA
There are also schools that do NOT have numerical averages. There, the average of an A one term and a B another term is an A. The colleges never see the B’s… only the final grade. In addition some schools have finals worth 14% of a student’s final grade and some have none. You can tell by grading policies which schools are tougher than others. I just hope that the colleges are aware also. It’s a shame, especially since kids from different school districts with different grading policies are compete for merit aid.

One student at my school just got in today at 3:00pm central time. I do not know the major.
At our school (my D’s school) no retakes allowed, tests and semester final test is over 30% of the grade and teachers are very hard on the kids. with that 89.7 isnt rounded off. Plus the school wont weigh in ap/honors courses. Ranting here.
in state or oos?
In state auto.
Heard 6-8pm tonight possible
Anyone have any new activity on the RIS today? I’m pretty sure my son’s went from Bad Data a couple of weeks ago to having details about his major etc. I don’t know when that change happened or if it means anything or not. Does anyone else have personal details on their RIS now?
