<p>There are several sources referred to in this thread.</p>
<p>I have no reason to doubt the information that Rice has provided about its accepted students, which was discussed early in this thread, and which is available on Rice’s website. With an increase in applications, it makes sense that Rice’s accepted students this year would have higher SAT scores than in the past.</p>
<p>I am not sure, however, that one should rely on GPA information from the Supermatch College Search, as the source of that information is unclear and an average unweighted GPA of 4.0 seems extremely unlikely.</p>
