<p>thanks … I do agree now that I’ve looked at more schools. For schools that are not highly selective, you can almost see a GPA or SAT cutoff line with who gets rejected. I re-looked at a few schools that my daughter applied to a few years ago and that makes sense based on her outcome and stats. I’m assuming if there is an ‘accept’ data point below what appears to be a cutoff, that is because of some hook or diversity slot they were trying to fill (American Indian, for examle). For schools that expect a high GPA and above 2250 SAT and that are highly selective, it would appear that other parts of the application are equally important to differentiate amazing candidates. Thanks, all!</p>
