[quote=Anonymous]"I hope you are right. He tried on the other sections because the scores weren't perfect. He got a 36 on the reading so he didn't try, because "it was already perfect."" There is little doubt that poster is correct about the tippy top schools but maybe not at state flagships where admissions are more based on statistics because they rely on their large class sizes to bring different types of kids to campus. At tippy top schools GPA and scores only act as a bar that you either clear or do not. Once you clear the bar, it's about how your other accomplishments stack up to others applicants. You got your acceptable scores/grades in rigorous enough classes while doing 3 varsity sports vs they got their scores/grades in rigorous enough classes while being class president for 3 years vs the accepted student who got acceptable scores/grades in rigorous enough classes while singing well enough to make any group/musical on the college campus.[/quote]
