What we’ve noticed anecdotaly – paying attention the past two years to which of my S’s and D’s friends have been accepted or rejected – is that UF places the most consideration on rigor of courseload with a high GPA. Less emphasis on test scores compared to the other two. And, as we’ve been told by an admissions officer – friend of my s’s turned down with a very difficult course load, but a high B average due to a couple of C’s in AP’s – is that they want the rigor AND the high grades for the classes. Again, this is only anecdotal (sp?). And with them closing the door to an additional 1000 students this year, be it transfer or undergrad admission, who knows!
