SAT/ACT 25th/75th Percentile?

Colleges & Universities University of Virginia

<p>While I see that the 25th/75th for the whole freshman class as a whole for the 2008-2009 school year was 1220-1440 and 27-32, does UVA divide up the averages past that?</p>

<p>What I’m basically asking is: does UVA calculate out-of-state percentiles and in-state percentiles as well?</p>

<p>we all wish they would publish that kind of data, but they… don’t.</p>

<p>here are some other interesting links on the subject (hinting at oos score differences):

<p>So would you say that the actual ranges can’t be more than 30-50 points higher?</p>

<p>And wow there seems to be a lot of complaining about who the university selects from the state looking at those articles. I wouldn’t know being out on the west coast though.</p>

<p>when i visited and spoke with an admissions officer, being oos, i asked what the average oos sat score is… he told me 1360, which seemed low but i hope that is true haha</p>

5

<p>that seems more like the overall average to me</p>

6

<p>Haha no I think the overall average is around 1300-1320 so that could be about right. I just don’t think there’s as much of a difference as some people might perceive.</p>

<p>i really hope not this and unc are tied for my number one school and i dont feel like paying 50 k a year to go to bc or nova where i got in already haha</p>

<p>Haha yeah. I think to get into UVA out-of-state you need to be in the top 5% instead of just top 10% of your class more than you need to have significantly higher test scores.</p>

<p>But if I don’t get in here I’ll probably end up at UCLA which is fine as well.</p>
