They’ll accept a 1.0 high school gpa, but then they give 300 points for being able to say his name, and another 300 for being able to spell it. If he can accomplish these very difficult tasks, then he comes on in as a full academic qualifier. They also assign tutors to help him with these tough tasks.

Are those SAT scores based on the old or the new SAT scores? The new one goes to 2400 points (I think, I took it when a perfect score was 1600). It would be pretty sad if you only had to get a 640 on a test that goes to 2400…

Dawgs,

When are you going to learn that if you are a Tech fan it does not mean you necessarily went to Tech. I love how every Tech fan is considered a nerd by nature and one who has no clue what a woman really is.

I tell you what if you met me in the street you would have no doubt that I am no nerd or at least you would not have the balls to call me one and thats a fact.

Since we are passing around judgement for all fans: I guess if you are a UGAY fan and drove up next to me in the street in that nifty ‘85 Ford Pickup, you would be asking me what drugs I have for sale as your missing your all important badmitten class.

Bottom line is you cannot compare the schools. One is a technical school and one isn’t its that simple. Sports will come and go at both and fans vary at both. Not all UGA fans are dumb rednecks or ghetto thugs and not all Tech fans are nerd virgins. I know tons of dudes that went to Tech who are married and have hot a* wives and I also know tons of UGA dudes in the same situation.

If having a better football team “at the moment” makes you really feel that much better about yourself (while trashing others) then more power to you. Fact of the matter is that it won’t last and Tech will eventually be the school to beat. Its called the “cycle” of sports.

You better get used to the idea.

ThUHA you win this mornings voice of truth prize. That was exactly the word I heard from a very reliable source. But hey, I’ve got a friend whose daughter made 1120 on the SAT and guess what….”sorry to inform you Ms. ___ we are not accepting enrollment at this time for middle class young adults such as yourself at your State University because we have to have room for someone that could not pass the state mandated graduation test but did graduate from a private school. Most importantly this student plays football and Mark Richt really wants him. Our suggestion is that you should have worked harder to get your SAT score up high enough to meet our enrollment standards for non football playing students. Thank you for your interest and we are enclosing a ticket form from the athletic association for the 2008 season. That fact that you will not be a student should not discourage you from being a Dawg fan because only 5% of the 92,000 in attendance each Saturday have even been inside a classoom at Georgia.

Wow, 620 SAT score? I had to score a minimum of 1100 just to get a sniff from Tech and with that score I had to enroll into the summer program to prove myself before my freshman year. And the SATs scoring format has changed since I took it in the 90’s. Every kid I know now scores over 1000 easily which use to be something special before. So 620? That is pathetic.

You know what’s really sad?? I know several very bright high school seniors who graduated last May and had their hopes up for getting in UGA. They are fine, outstanding students, with GPAs of 3.65, 3.7, and 3.72, and they all had SAT scores in the 1350 - 1400 range, with impeccable behavior records, and they each volunteer extensively in their community to help make it better. But, despite this, they were not able to get into glorious UGA because they were told their grades were not “good enough” - that it is very competitive to get into UGA (the Hope scholarship has a lot to do with the increased competition to get in). But you have some Dumb-a** athlete who barely graduates from HS (likely social promotion or teachers not wanting him in their classes again - so they promote him to get rid of him) and who doesn’t even make 800 on the SAT, and he gets in - not only does he get in - but gets “glorified” and a “free ride”. Now, where is the logic and the morals in that? That you can have students that did everything right, paid their dues by all the late night work and studying for the last 10 years, and they can’t get into the school they want to. Something is wrong with this picture. UGA sells its soul for 12 football games or 35 basketball games a year. Pathetic.

Who really cares about scores? If a person is an athlete, that person makes lots of money for the school. If you are not an athlete, then you get your ticket punched for that job. It is NOT about learning! GET it stupid! Most graduates do not work in their field of study so a person with a AA degree is just as good or better; perhaps they have real time experience. College is overated! It’s only about money and prestige. Oh and of course recruiting more liberals. If a person graduated with a BA/BS in 1999. He is not a college trained computer operator or user.
