[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]CMC really sticks out in the test required group. Their scores must be among the most inflated with their percentage of admitted students submitting SAT at less than 30%. [/quote]

We don't have the most recent CDS yet for this year's class at CMC (2025-26), but the last published one (2024-25) has SAT/ACT at 39% submitted which is low. But almost half of their student body comes from CA and their have historically been far fewer test sites in CA until the last 12-18 months only. So I suspect that the number will be higher in the next CDS (25/26) or (26/27). They will be test required in 2028.

Where we live in CA - SF Bay - it was actually impossible to get SAT test sites in SF just 2 years ago. It just started to get easier 18 months ago and that's true across CA. I knew people 2 yrs ago flying to Arizona to take the SAT. It's hard to do that and take the test multiple times as people on this board seem to do. Even now, there are still zero locations in SF city to offer the ACT, you have to drive an hour away or more. You can take the SAT in SF thankfully. I think this issue over low availability of test site was because there was low demand as UCs/Cal States are test blind vs TO? Either way, this year's class at our DD's school seems to be testing a lot more.[/quote]
