<p>I’ve heard that UT uses V + M, and I’ve heard that UT uses W + M. Which is correct?</p>
<p>I hope someone has some idea what you are talking about.</p>
<p>Verbal + Math vs Writing + Math ???</p>
<p>Yes, verbal + math vs writing + math</p>
<p>It varies depending on your school. I know Engineering uses just the Writing and Math (especially that…i hear you need a 700+ to even be considered ). </p>
<p>For other schools, such as McCombs, all three are used. </p>
<p>You should keep two things in mind: </p>
<p>1) Different colleges and departments within UT have different ways of using standardized test scores. Some place an emphasis on one or two, while others don’t place any weight on a certain subject (Engineering ignores CR). </p>
<p>2) Your standardized test score and your rank are used to give you an AI. It’s a more quantitative measure for objective purposes. </p>
<p>(These equations were used in the past to ‘predict’ the GPA of a incoming freshman. It was used in the admissions policy I believe. How much the equation or procedure has changed since then, I don’t know.) </p>
<p>For Liberal Arts, Communications, Fine Arts, Social Work, and Education:
Predicted Freshman GPA = -0.19949 + (SAT V * 0.00142) + (SAT M * 0.00191) + (HSR * 0.01459)
Predicted Freshman GPA = 0.09689 + (ACT E * 0.02513) + (ACT M * 0.04577) + (HSR * 0.01351)
For Nursing, Natural Sciences, and Architecture:
Predicted Freshman GPA = -1.10339 + (SAT V * 0.00088166) + (SAT M * 0.00230) + (HSR * 0.02416)
Predicted Freshman GPA = -0.51242 + (ACT E * 0.00824) + (ACT M * 0.05007) + (HSR * 0.02199)
For Engineering:
Predicted Freshman GPA = -1.53545 + (SAT V * 0.00072937) + (SAT M * 0.00313) + (HSR * 0.02285)
Predicted Freshman GPA = -1.78910 + (ACT E * 0.01074) + (ACT M * 0.07335) + (HSR * 0.02708)
For Business:
Predicted Freshman GPA = -2.31253 + (SAT V * 0.00157) + (SAT M * 0.00229) + (HSR * 0.03419)
Predicted Freshman GPA = -2.14521 + (ACT E * 0.02892) + (ACT M * 0.05405) + (HSR * 0.03409)</p>
<p>Hope it helps.</p>

What kind of numbers were used for HSR?
Rank like 1, 5 or 10 doesn’t make any sense.</p>
<p>All of the formulas I have seen for the ACT use the combined English/Writing score. But it is a little dated too—from 2010.</p>
<p>I read this title again and all I can think about is Flo on the Progressive commercial. “Let’s get ready to bundllllllllllllle”.</p>
