[quote=Anonymous]SATs are not an accurate predictor of how good a student is and how well they will do in college. They are only one factor. The kids getting in without them have merits too that perhaps some of the other SAT scorers lack. FWIW, my kid got rejected from an Ivy that several lesser stats private school kids got into. Her GPA and SATs were far higher. She has extensive leadership and great ECs. One could argue that the lower stats private school kids leverage their school name/connections. Who knows. What we do know is that colleges have more qualified students applying than places. They build the class they want to build. Work with what you have and hope for the best. Be glad your kid has a great education and do well wherever she lands.[/quote]
