[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This board gives me whiplash. I just finished reading at least three posts that any high stats kids has no shot at getting into top schools with perfect scores and how every responder’s kid had 35 or 36 and got into only their safeties. This board made it sound like a 34 could possibly hurt and the guide books were not to be trusted. So forgive me for being confused. [/quote] The reason it's confusing is because admissions is a crap shoot. A 34 is a fantastic score, but there are also thousands of kids who get perfect ACT scores (and SAT scores) each year and that doesn't guarantee admission into a USNWR Top X anything. Withholding a 34 to go test optional against kids who submit a 35 or a 36 isn't a good plan. [/quote]
