[quote=Anonymous][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] It doesn't matter, one of mine only took it once, scored 1590 but got waitlisted at all three Ivies he applied to. Everything else was top notch too. Only drawbacks were being Asian and attending a large hyper competitive suburban school. Fortunately, got into Amherst and merit scholarships offers from Vanderbilt, Rice and USC.[/quote] I recommend attending a small private or an inner city public school and applying to an early decision ivy instead of top three EA ivies.[/quote]
