That's because so many kids live in Florida and apply to UF. They can only accept so many kids, so of course the ones with the highest SATs and GPAs are going to be accepted.

Pretty impressive NTL.

We cracked the list at #94! Georgia Tech is barely ahead of us at #90.

Does this list take into account Georgia Tech's $8 billion in economic impact to the state?

How the hell do you get a 4.4 in high school? Do A+'s count that much? Been a while

Honors classes get extra .5 and AP classes extra 1.0.


4.4 gpa would be making all A's in honor classes and occassional B in AP class.

Thats how it worked 20 years ago.

Point / Counterpoint

Or maybe when the Dawgs are forced to stop faking and have to pay the football players the school can finally go back to being a university again?
