[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Agree 100% I believe that the standards for students that don't submit scores are significantly higher -- near-perfect grades, ECs, LORs and essays. Outside of a few schools, particular the UCs, test scores seem to really benefit applicants.[/quote] +1 Also, the idea that you shouldn't submit test scores that fall marginally below the mean or median ACT/SAT score for the school is a terrible one. If DC is only a few points below, but DC goes TO, then DC gets lumped in with all of the TO applicants who were much lower than the mean or median score. That means that the rest of DC's application will have to be that much better. So to quote Mel Brooks, if you've got it, flaunt it! https://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/if%20you%27ve%20got%20it%2C%20flaunt%20it [/quote]
