Look at those PNMs and look up the UGA admissions standards these days. Know that almost all of them have extensive activities and good conversational skills. They will all seem eager to be at your party. Now, ask yourself how you would decide who to keep and who to release.
(Academically UGA wasn't as selective when I went there, and I really don't remember everyone going through rush being as universally pretty, so I'm not trying to retro-actively flatter myself, I promise.)

The competition really is fierce. There is an article posted on UGA site today that says this is the..."most academically talented freshman class in its history"
Plus, something like over 90% of the freshmen are on the HOPE - Georgia's state scholarship program and that is with the current changes that were just made to the program that made it even harder to attain.
