[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote]This thread has so much crazy.[/quote]

This is OP, and a few years ago I would have had the same reaction.  My daughter knew a girl in her sport who is 4 years older and took the SAT 9 or 10 times (and finally got above a 1500).  I thought it was absolutely insane, but here we are during junior year and my kid has verbally committed to a school that doesn't really give an admission preference to recruited athletes, so we are are right in  the crazy.[/quote]

And there’s a material difference in likelihood of admission between a 1490 and a 1500?

And if she doesn’t get into this one particular school, the other 15 just like it aren’t acceptable? Or the 25 others kinda like it?

Not trying to be snarky, but this thread really illustrates the complete lack of perspective prevalent in this forum.

NP, in retrospect, as the parent of a student that stopped at 1490 (two tests), I do think there is a material difference between a 1490 and 1500+.

Younger sibling had identical scores as older sibling on first two tests, took it a third and got a 1530.  Very different kid in lots of ways but both very high grades, older actually stronger academically naturally but younger put in tremendous effort after seeing the challenges older sibling went through and has stronger ECs.  We shall see how things go.  [/quote]
