[quote=Anonymous]Your College Bound Kid episode 398 https://yourcollegeboundkid.com/2024/01/22/ycbk-398-are-colleges-secretly-factoring-test-scores-into-decisions-for-test-optional-applicants/ The discussion is from 10:00 to 21:30 in the podcast. They discussed whether colleges impute a low score (eg, sub 25th percentile) to a kid who does not submit a score. They interviewed some directors of admissions. The answer was no, colleges are not doing this. The general logic was that this would create more work for AOs, expose the college to liability, and most importantly, they don't need test scores (even invented ones) to make decisions. I know there are plenty of people on here who think "TO is not really TO especially for white and Asian kids" but here's a datapoint saying yes, TO is really TO. [/quote]
