Let me walk you through what a real FIT Score looks like when all three lenses fire green at the same school.
Take a D1 baseball pitcher. Senior year. Throws 88 MPH. GPA 3.1. ACT 24. Wants to stay within 500 miles of home. Budget around $30K/yr. Small to mid-size campus.
Plug it in. Search the database.
Academic Lens: 3.1 GPA clears most D1 minimums (typically 2.8). ACT 24 is competitive at most D1s with selective academic profiles. Green at probably 60% of D1s in his geographic radius.
Personal Preferences: 500-mile radius rules out half the country immediately. Budget filter trims the expensive privates. Campus size narrows further. Specific majors narrow more.
Athletic Lens: 88 MPH is comfortable D1 (above the 86 floor). Below Power 4 (90+). Green at most non-Power-4 D1s.
Cross-reference all three. The schools that come back GREEN on all three lenses simultaneously? That's where to spend his energy. That's the targeted 20.
Not the schools with cool logos. The schools where his profile actually fits.
That's the FIT Score working.
