[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]this is for current Juniors?  my kid has no interest in Harvard, but this seems really really late to make this call for this class[/quote]

Any student considering applying to Harvard has already tested. [/quote]

Not really. My DD got a letter with brochure a month ago from Harvard because of her psat score I would guess.

It explicitly said TO is an option. Odd to say the least to have such a short notice.

I don’t think we will get a letter saying sorry actually it’s back to testing?

Actually my DC got an email from Harvard this morning announcing that update. DC one and done at 36.[/quote]

My dd isn’t signed up  with email and we are also not one and done. So for us this hits differently as she is in the midst of the full ib diploma. Her school is low performing, she is in a niche program. For us this means grinding it out. She thought a fairly good psat would be enough. It’s all back to time management. Our summer will suffer. Work life balance also. It’s not really holistic the way I thought it to be. [/quote]

Confused—you thought a PSAT score would be enough? That isn’t on the common app.[/quote]

National recognition programs are based on PSAT score. Anecdotally, for a couple of years, at some schools, going TO but having a recognition program in the academic awards section was a winning formula. [/quote]
