The unfortunate truth is that while there are many exceptions, a great deal of college athletes struggle academically. Legendary college basketball program UNLV graduated zero, yes that’s right zero, of their players from 1995 to 2000 despite being one of the top teams in the country. The reasons for poor academic performance entail a variety of reasons, but the time commitment that being a competitive athlete brings out certainly factors in here. Often, athletes are responsible for attending early morning physical conditioning, where cardio and strength exercises take place. Then, afternoon or early evening practice of the specific sport takes place. Sometime in between there the student athlete has to eat, attend classes, study, plus make some sort of a stab at a social life. Understand that you will have to manage your time well, and inquire if the university will allow you to be enrolled part-time during sports season if you make up your missing courses during the summer so you are still eligible via NCAA rules.
Ivy和名私校完全不一样。 刚查了下,For H, " Nearly 80 percent of Harvard students are involved in some kind of athletics, and 20% participate in one of Harvard's 42 varsity teams." 他们已经代表H的student body,他们的平均学术水平几乎就是H的平均水平。

警告没啥用
每个人都应该自行评估自己适合的方向。不是自己家有体育天才就号召大家都搞体育。
如果是大学刚毕业的学生(本科或是硕博),没有3。7的成绩都不看的。
为啥学校公布的成绩都是25%-75%?
因为不少体育生的成绩低于25%。
3.0以下算是偏差的了。
但2.x就可以毕业了
就是一开始我想让双宝加入的游泳club。
每年一堆孩子高中毕业,游泳强的,成绩一般的白孩子,都去D1的传统旗舰州大。主攻游泳,因为这些州大还是实力很强,有输送选手去奥运。比如我们德州农机,奥本这类的。
还有就是去NYU,一看那个孩子,就是个亚裔.估计游泳不是队里最强的,但是学习成绩不错,good enough to apply for top25.
还有就是去那种啥名头都没听说的小的D1school.估计这些孩子GPA太差,学习肯定去了旗舰州大也未必能survive,同时游泳成绩也不是顶尖.
因为我研究生成绩就是3。5啊。可是他高中成绩垫底啊。
倒是他PHD研究生期间,成绩是3。9。想踩我几下。
一门俄罗斯叫兽的课,因为俄罗斯口音,一个字都听不懂。俺又独来独往,等学期过了一大半,才发现每次的测验,有的实验室有同学居然拿到考古题。我完全不知道,每次测验都是50分左右,当时那么课,我只希望我不要拿C。:(
另外一门课,完全没兴致,上课基本上睡觉,研究生的无机化学。。。
H,M的学霸是啥等级的?这些运动员没时间学习,GPA和学霸的差不多高?你信吗?我自己的孩子一个学渣,一个学霸,我是不信的
当然,我知道你会说GPA 算个什么,AIME也不算啥。不过是真的,以你对学霸的迷糊定义,就算不玩体育,全世界也没有几个。
每年招收各种学生那么多
不是亲眼所见的事情,不要轻易去推断。
刚听了一个大学升学的会,四个recruiter 说8000大学不要sat和act, pandemic过后,也会继续。
成绩单将来没用。
搞运动的,至少可以看小孩的毅力和抗压能力。没必要一棒子打死。
我的基本定位是我们州大。但是如果孩子瞎猫碰到死耗子,给歪打正着撞进大藤,我也是高兴的。
几年前也许我会说,孩子不要去藤,因为当时我也没有那个经济实力砸锅卖铁让两个孩子去藤校上课,只会酸不溜秋的说,不要去,不值。

现在也许境况不同,如果有哪个实力,还是得冲一下吧。
绝大部分是运动员。
你把州大橄榄球跟M 游泳全混为一谈了
不知道你的评价到底想表达啥意思
不到。
你能保证以后得诺贝尔物理奖吗?你当然可以追求,但不要诋毁别人的追求。
比如篮球,橄榄球。他们特招的学生成绩可以很差。学术水平低的公立大学这点愈加明显。

所以我知道一些大学 (NCAA D1) 体育的事情。(1)楼主原帖引用的那篇讲 UNLV 大学校队的文章,我多年前对 UNLV 有所了解,文章中描写的“1995-2000年校队运动员里面没有一人毕业”是真的。但是,这里指的只是校男子篮球队,而不包括别的项目的校队。而校男篮之所以没人能毕业,原因很多,包括招人的时候利用政策的漏洞招了很多非常渣的学渣。(2)现在,根据我对我家孩子以及他们队友的了解,大多数学校的大多数学生运动员 (Student Athlets) 都是正常的大学生,他们的课程负担和学科成绩基本相同于别的学生。作为例子,上个学年 (2020-2021) 他们队的整体 GPA 甚至高于全校平均值。
