And I think that - if you met the stated new criteria, you were getting admitted anyway.
I think it changes nothing.
But should someone top 10% in Tn or 6% in Tx who is woefully unprepared get in - no.
So if you have an 18 ACT either should welcome you bcuz you make the rank ?
No.
But at UTK that kid was getting in anyway - in my opinion.
So my opinion doesn’t matter. But it was not big news here and I’m biased as I come from a wealthier demographic but I think it’s a snooze.
But what I think doesn’t matter.
There’s many things I don’t like - test optional, loan forgiveness if it wasn’t stated up front, elimination of majors for non academic or budget reasons.
But like all - I’m just an outside bystander.
