Many of you may not have heard of StonyBrook University. This is a school primarily focused around the scientific and arithmetic courses, along with other minors as well. This school is part of the National Merit Institution, and is widely recognized as being one of the top 100 universities across the nation. Yeah, top 100.
Lets examine the statistics behind how many applied and were accepted during the 2015-16 school year.

So overall, the approximated estimate for those who were accepted of those who applied was 41%. This is a very large number in terms of acceptance, as some colleges have less than 10% acceptance rates. Lets investigate what is expected of students who apply for the university.
