The formula to calculate the Academic Index is:
\[ \text{AI} = \frac{(2 \cdot \text{GPA} + \frac{\text{SAT}}{10} + \frac{\text{ACT}}{2})}{4} \]
Where:
The Academic Index is a numerical value used by college admissions offices to summarize a student’s academic performance. It is calculated based on standardized test scores, high school grade point average, and class rank. The index is used to compare applicants and determine their eligibility for admission. It is particularly used by Ivy League and other selective institutions to ensure a minimum academic standard among their athletes.
Let's assume the following values:
Using the formula to calculate the Academic Index:
\[ \text{AI} = \frac{(2 \cdot 3.8 + \frac{1400}{10} + \frac{32}{2})}{4} = \frac{(7.6 + 140 + 16)}{4} = \frac{163.6}{4} = 40.90 \]
The Academic Index (AI) is 40.90.
