SAT scores Texas A & M

[Just interested]

I really think every chapter and campus is different. Unfortunately there is no way to know. I will however, put this bug in your ear for contemplation. With the 10% rule and even less I understand at UT, chapters at UT and TA&MU probably have to, I'm not saying they do because I don't for sure, look at everything regarding academics. AP classes, ACT, SAT included.
Everybody entering these campuses are in top 10% of their HS. So where do they go from there? What are the chances of all these students being successful at one of these very competitive schools. All GPA's are not created equal.

I hate it when people leave it off. I always go back and ask, and won't complete a rec without it. Grade inflation nullifies GPA data in my opinion.

But on the other hand, she might be from a school where the grades really aren't inflated, she's just a rotten tester. Some people are smart and hard workers and get great grades, standardized tests just aren't their bag and they break out in hives just at the thought of them.

She isn't a horrible testee but took the test at the beginning of her junior year with zero preperation, just to get a feel for the test. Once she realized she would be top 10 she chose not to retest. I don't think grades are inflated at our high school but I wouldn't know how to determine that either. She works hard and has taken all the honors classes and dual credit coursesnthat she could. She currently has a 99.17 average and a 3.8 in her dual credit 24 hours.

I think she may go ahead and retake it in November. Those results will make it toTAMU by the scholarship deadline
