[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Has anyone done this? We see the 1550/35 scoring kids get deferred and waitlisted. Would it be a better approach to go TO or submit a lower single sitting score? My kid isn’t in this boat - but sometimes I see people on here having worse results with higher stats and wonder what people think of this approach? Of course, merit aid could be impacted but if your main goal is just admission. Any ethical reason not to do this?[/quote] Merit aid would not be impacted. You can amend you application AFTER you have been accepted to get the higher SATs counted towards merit. My kid didn’t take his score intentionally, but did get a better score after his apps were in (took them again in December of his senior year) and resubmitted the higher score for more merit. Your suggestion is a ballsy move. I doubt anyone would do it, but it’s an idea. [/quote]
