My favorite part: “the decisions they’re making at the end of the decision is Cal, it’s UCLA, it’s Texas, it’s Michigan, sometimes (North) Carolina, but we’re really in.” Lol

I know it’s a lot of alters to keep track of, but next time sign out and have UGAAlum or GAT talk about UTSA. NFLSU already used that material.

You have to be top 6% of your high school to get into Texas. That eliminates 94% (stay with me here I know math is complicated) of the pool of applicants who want a great education from a top 10 public university.

If a kid wants to go and can't get in, he can go to another university and transfer after he shows he can make the grades. Why would that be a bad thing? How does that diminish the quality of education?

However, the specific departments and programs are hard to get into as well, so even if admitted it is rare a high demand major like computer science will be available to them.
