How many "unqualified" students apply to top schools?

<p>Very few schools do, but some will publish acceptance rates based on SAT scores. This should give you a slightly better estimate than raw acceptance rate, although still won’t give you a “final” answer.</p>

<p>For example, Stanford accepted:

  • 8-9% of all applications
  • 17% of 800 SAT CR
  • 12% of 800 SAT M
  • 19% of 800 SAT W</p>

<p>And declining percentages below those scores.</p>
