[quote=Anonymous]Some schools really do think it's optional and will not hesitate to say so when you tour and ask an admissions officer. Meaning: you will be judged on what you present in your application. If it's very strong, you're in. For these schools, it's one less data point among all the other data points you're submitting. It doesn't make it any less or more difficult for admission. Other schools will wonder why you're not submitting tests. For these, you'd better submit anything that is better than the published mid-range of scores (or in the upper range of that interval). If you don't, they will assume you tested poorly. BTW: Colleges know EXACTLY what kind of high school your kid goes to. They are sent profiles by each school, and they can ascertain socio-economic demographics easily. [/quote]
