I know Duke doesn't, but they do that the 50%, 75%, and 90% percentile for test scores. That is merely a benchmark. If the #1 QB wants to come to Duke and has just the minimum NCAA requirements but lacks the ideal grades and test scores to get into Duke and clearly is in the bottom 1%, you think that's gonna stop Coach Cut from taking him?
The same can be said for a donor who gives $100 million to Duke. I don't care how dumb his kids are, they are obviously getting in the school.
