[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think it depends on the school. I can only speak to Swarthmore because someone asked in the info session we attended. They said “look are our published range and submit accordingly.” Which I took as submit if at 50th percentile or above. [/quote] In addition to the published range, you should also consider: 1) how strong is DCs score relative to other students at the school-if a real outlier, worth reporting; 2) what percentage of applicants submitted scores with applications at any given school - if percentage of submitters is low and DC’s scores are not above 50%, would weigh in favor of going TO; 3) how committed is the school to TO - are they approving on a year by year basis, adopted TO indefinitely, were they TO before COVID? TO is generally a safe option with SLACs, but the more comfortable they are with TO, the better. [/quote]
