[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Could some of this issue (or most of it) be caused by the test optional trend of the last 4 years? I imagined if you were an average or slightly above average student with an inflated GPA who got into one of these intense schools via test optional, starting behind everyone else from the get go would be very stressful and demoralizing.[/quote] Probably it contributed.[/quote] I think there’s a strong connection. If you got a 1350 and they are expecting the work of someone who can get a 1570 then yes it would be challenging. The amount of reading given requires a very high level of reading comprehension and to be able to read fast, for example.[/quote] This kid had a 1550 on the SAT or something like that. [/quote]
