[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Something I don't think anyone has mentioned yet, Caltech's app, at least before this fall, has long included the following question: [quote]Have you taken math exams, such as the AMC 12 or AIME? If so, please list your scores and their corresponding dates.[/quote] This may be how they get around the need for SAT/ACT. This question already self-selects for top privates/publics whose students participate in math competitions, who both have the ability and are sufficiently coached (as in, a math coach) to do well. (I know a current Caltech student from your basic competitive suburban high school who would have had such scores.)[/quote] Sorry, I thought I was on the Caltech thread. Mea culpa.[/quote]
