My kid has this split too, wants engineering or science, they really don’t want to take it again and I am fine with that. |
| In this day of super scoring, I’d say 1500/34. |
First read? or having a real chance? First read is lower. 1500 seems too high for first read. |
| Yall are delusional 25th percentiles are not for your upper middle class white children. Thats not happening. |
with a niche humanities major and some national awards? yes, it works. |
Then who are they for? Schools will be careful to avoid different average scores for accepted students by race for the next few years... |
No. Once it's transparent, people will scrutinize rejected pool too. If they see all the high scorer white being rejected while low scorer white being accepted, there is something fishy. |
+1, all the time. Where do people think the ivies get their top art talent from? |
holistic |
?? Not sure of your point. What if the lower scoring (whether white or not) has the higher GPA and took lots more AP's, took AP classes in all disciplines not just STEM or not just humanities and was the Student Body President, held down a job and won a national level debate award and was not applying for an impacted major? You think that the SAT score is the sole determinate of admission? It has never been so and will never be so. |
I'm fairly certain Trump's admin only sees the admitted students' stats, not the denied ones. |
Do we think the "algorithms" that shape classes will try to ensure admitted students' stats across races are closer this year? |
I don't know but I think that holistic reviews will all be done with an eye towards what this student will look like when stripped of all facts other than GPA & test score. |

People are delusional.
Anyways I am disappointed at Ivy League schools. They are supposed to be the beacon of light and hope. Every single one of them caved. None of them have a spine. MAGA will not engage in rational discussion with them. Any prima facie evidence of disparity, they will defund the school. |
