Here are the things you should be on the lookout for when reviewing it:

1. Acceptance rate: This will give you an idea of the overall competitiveness of the institution.

2. SAT/ACT score ranges: Understand the mid-range scores (25th-75th percentile) for admitted students to see if your scores are in line with those accepted.

3. High school class rank percentage: This can show you how the college values class rank in the context of undergraduate admission.

4. Admission factors: The dataset breaks down admission factors in three categories - "Very Important," "Important," and "Considered." Review these to understand what areas to focus on to strengthen your application.
