those are not good criteria for determining whether a school is easier or harder to get into, i wouldnt rely on that as basis for an opinion.Test scores are not the reason he decided to come to Bama. I just did some quick checking. Althought AU has no written requirement for the ACT. Some Students get in with as low as an 18 on the ACT. I think they prefer a 21 score. 79% of those who applied to for entrance into Auburn university were accepted as compared to only 54% of those that applied to Bama. These numbers tell me it is easier to get into Auburn than Alabama.
