I came up with that based on your post #38 above. @Gator88NE
I acknowledge that it is much easier for UF to move up in the rankings if UF can exclude as many of the top ranked students from underperforming school districts as it pleases under the guise of “holistic admissions”.
But, UF is a state supported flagship school which should serve the citizens in all of its counties whether rich or poor, black or white, excellent school system or underperforming school system.
With a top X% class rank & a minimum standardized test score, all deserve a chance to benefit from the state flagship university’s superior resources.
Ignoring students from underperforming schools & disadvantaged backgrounds is not a solution.
