[quote=Anonymous]If you get his newsletter, this was an interesting tidbit: "By the numbers: In general, my discussions with deans at about a dozen selective colleges over the last few weeks found that about half of their applicant pools applied without test scores. In every case I heard so far, students with test scores got accepted more often. In some cases, the admit rate was twice as high for students with test scores vs. those without. Emory: Admit rate 17% (with tests) vs. 8.6% (without tests) Colgate: 25% (w/tests) vs. 12% (w/o tests) Georgia Tech: 22% (w/tests) vs. 10% (w/o tests) Vanderbilt: 7.2% (w/tests) vs. 6% (w/o tests) Bottom line: For students from the Class of 2022 who are applying to schools without a long history of test-optional admissions, it’s best to have a test score if it will help your overall case."[/quote]
