<p>Accuracy is not the point of this thread. The point of this thread is provide one more place for CCers to boast.</p>

<p>221 (7). Hopefully it’ll increase a bit after I retake the SAT I on Saturday and my rank is recalculated at the end of the academic year. No acceptance results as of yet (rising senior).</p>

<p>To all those complaining that the index changes based on what ranking system you use, it clearly states that you should use the most detailed information you have. It’s only natural that the ranking will change based on actual rank vs. decile/quartile (less precise results—probably boosts your index a bit) vs. GPA (unhelpful—without some idea of the competitiveness of your grades as measured against your peers, the index will provide a poor evaluation of your stats).</p>

<p>Hm. When it asks you GPA (4.30 +) being the highest option… is that weighted or unweighted? I would assume mostly everyone here on CC has above a 4.30 o.O</p>

<p>true that, las ma.</p>

<p>bump this up</p>

71

<p>Is there one that uses ACT?</p>

<p>This is dumb. I type in 800 for all SAT fields, 300 for size of graduating class and top 10% in the decile column and I get an 8/9.</p>
