[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]As someone who works in college admissions, I don’t worry so much about the students with high GPA’s who go test optional. They tend to be hardworking students who will continue to work hard in college. The ones I do worry about are the kids with B averages who score below 1100/23 on the SAT/ACT and apply TO—and absolutely struggle at mid-tier schools. [/quote] Bingo! This is the nuanced aspect to TO. Of course the naysayers will immediately say... "what about grade inflation?" "some of those high GPA's aren't real" etc... However, most of the time applicants are being evaluated against their own school peers.[/quote]
