[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Several of the top publics don’t accept them as part of the admissions process. They are as useful as most job references - not very useful at all.[/quote] It depends very much on the institution. I can understand a low ranking public school is going to have less of a nuanced look at applications than a small private etc.[/quote] You missed the mark. Berkeley, UCLA, and UF don’t accept them, although Berkeley may as part of an augmented review. That’s 3 top 30 schools and I don’t bother to look any further.[/quote] And it's another reason why Berkeley and UCLA have no business being in the Top 20. They don't take test scores. They don't take recommendations. Mediocre. [/quote] Which schools should be in the Top 20?[/quote]
