| U of Texas; GPA's
University of Texas is listed as THE University of Texas. Wouldn't it make more sense to list it as "Texas at Austin, University of" or "University of Texas, Austin"?
Also, since schools calculate GPA so many different ways, would it be possible to recommend a consistent way to calculate or estimate the GPA? Maybe that's unrealistic, but I've always found GPA postings confusing.

I don't find this very useful unless you can see the stats of admitted, matriculated students. There's no point in knowing who's applying if you don't know who was accepted in the past.

I agree with the 'might apply'. That would be good to add 
Also maybe another box where we can write misc. info. special circumstances or something.

Listing AP/IB courses and scores would be nice.

The college profiles from previous years is still not availiable. This feature is useless without it.

My high school GPA is on a scale of 1 to 7, where <4=F, 4=C, 5=B, 6=A-, and 7=A+. It'd be useful if we could type in our GPA as __ out of __, as in "6.3 out of 7.0", instead of assuming that it's on the 4.0 scale.
I agree with the suggestion to have a space to list AP/IB courses (or courses in general).

| GPAs
I assume that everyone has an unweighted GPA, whether or not they also have a weighted GPA. My D's school does not weight and I find the weighted GPAs to be a puzzle, as every school does the weighting differently and I have no frame of reference. What would be helpful to us would be an unweighted GPA (with an indication of the maximum possible -- viz "3.42/4.00") and a separate space for the weighted GPA (again, with an indication of the maximum possible).

Could you add "In State" / "Out of State" to the Stats Profile College Search feature?
For state schools it's handy to view the admissions results that way.

Is there something like when you click on a member's public profile, it has a link to their stats profile as well?

Yes, if they have a stats profile it will be linked from their member profile.
