The University of California has two criteria used to set admission standards for freshmen to be admitted to a college in the UC system:
a. Students' GPAs and scores on standardized tests (SATs and ACTs) are entered into a formula that calculates an "admissions index" score. The admissions index score is used to set eligibility standards intended to meet the goal of admitting the top of high school students in the state. In this context, what percentile does the top represent?
b. Students whoseGPAs are at or above the 96th percentile of all students at their high school are eligible (called eligible in the local context), even if they are not in the top of all students in the state. What percentage of students from each high school are "eligible in the local context"?
