[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Test optional is a smokescreen to perpetuate admission discrimination and everyone knows it. Can’t wait for the Supreme Court to rule on these “holistic” policies. Low achievers love them but I hope everyone who supports test optional chooses a degree optional doctor for their next major surgery.[/quote]

So, what's your definition of a "low achiever" who gets into a top 20 school without submitting a test score? Obviously, they bring other sterling credentials outside of sitting for a 3 hour test.[/quote]

Your race and the educational attainment of your *parent(s)* are not credentials.[/quote]

what if they're an athlete with low test scores getting in on their ability to throw a ball?[/quote]

At least that's skill that required some degree of discipline and work on top of raw talent.

Skin tone requires no such thing, nor does the fact that my dad went to trade school.[/quote]

so getting through medical school and residency wouldn't also demonstrate some degree of discipline and work? Your argument is getting worse, not better.[/quote]
