How can UChicago which is a small school that accepts a mix of Test and TO beat UCB and UCLA which are huge and 100% test blind?

How can I find out about Cornell’s TO data for the college of arts & sciences?

I don’t know what you mean by “beat” but UChicago CDS says that despite being permanently TO, applicants still submit test scores! 49% submit SAT and 35% submit ACT. These must be stellar scores for kids to reveal them probably proudly to the school. I think TO at other schools plays out very differently.

This shows how TO has warped perceptions of what is a “good” score. So many threads arguing that only 1500+ belong AND can do well at these schools. 🙄🤔

I think Pomona/CMC also take a lot TO.

What about Amherst/Williams? Anyone have the CDS handy?

[Anonymous]

There have to more.

What about UMiami?
