Just to recap all this argument over the SAT scores between the races is over a grand total of 8% of the total score.
Yet the SAT numbers listed previously indicate that the scores are competitive with institutions ahead of UF.

So the real question out there is where is UF LOOSING POINTS?

I’ll try and plug in the Penn State numbers vs. UF to see if anything becomes obvious. Of course these will be last years #'s
