Compare UCF to some schools in the SEC; UCF wouldn’t be at the bottom.

Further too, compare them to USF, which is an AAU school.


This is the first time UCF or USF have been presented as high quality schools.

They all now have legit ties into well paying Florida industries that some would say exceed many SEC opportunities.


My nephew graduated from UCF. He now works for NASA. I don't know his ACT scores but I can guarantee it is significantly higher than 16.

I wouldnt say she even really praised it, she said embrace it and prepare in so many words



This. The AI bus isn't coming in as hot and fast as tech bros like to project that it is but make no mistake, it is coming. You can either start getting dressed and be ready to get on the bus, or you can get ran the frick over by it.

How is it short bus level thinking? The school is garbage.


Times change dawg. GT is probably better than Harvard these days. UCF isn't a trash school by any real metric.

Shortbus thinking is you doubling & tripling down without providing anything to back up your points. "Youre wrong AND all your data is wrong, because I say so" is a shortbus argument.

Got no skin in this fight, just calling it how it is.

You couldn’t be more wrong. Outside of Vandy, Florida, and UGA, UCF blows the rest of the SEC out of the water.

Acceptance about the same as Auburn, SAT and ACT worse, which puts UCF behind Texas, ATM, and Tennessee in addition to the other SEC schools mentioned above. So you were wrong Hog Zealot.

As for USF's AAU designation, that stopped being meaningful decades ago when it became more political correctness than academic rigor.
