[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]If something is "recommended", you'd be wise to submit. These "soft requirements" shouldn't be viewed as optional if you want to be admitted. [/quote]

But that's not the question. Not submitting a poor score is better than no score at all if it is only "recommended" by the college.  Obviously getting and submitting a good score is always advisable regardless of stated admissions policies --  but someone who has good scores wouldn't even ask the question, would they?[/quote]

Well, if you kid has a bad score, he/she has no business applying to top tier schools that recommend SATIIs, right? [/quote]

No.

One bad score in a subject that may not be the student's strongest does not define their potential at any college.

Also, this thread is not entitled "should a student with one bad subject test score apply to top colleges?"  It is "For schools requiring “all scores”, does that mean all SATs AND all ACTs?".

And the answer to that is "read each's college's policy, and if it is vague in any way, choose the path that best benefits the student while fully complying with the stated policy".[/quote]
