By the way, though it’s easier for instate students to get in, it’s not exactly a piece of cake just because you have good scores. My friend attended a VA high school where one year it had 2 valedictorians and 2 salutatorians, and all 4 of them were rejected by UVa.

MeyerXC, I’m not trying to scare you w/ all this info. The one great thing about UVa is that it looks at each applicant in totality. Unlike some public schools, UVa doesn’t cut you off if your GPA or SAT falls below a certain number. UVa realizes that each person is more than the sum of his/her scores, and it will look at everything that you bring to the table.
