How many people get into Pitt Honors with a 1300/1600 SAT or 29 ACT? I think most are in the 1400+ range and and according to the Common Data Set for Pitt there are only 20% of the entering freshman that have a 700+ on either their Math or Critical reading SAT scores. How many have 700+ on both? Even allowing for those students that finished at the top 5% of a weak academic high school the number of accepted students in the Pitt Honors program has to be substantially less than “everyone and their mother”.
