[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This type of ranking is not useful under test optional. If a school only has a small percentage reporting but a higher average, that doesn't mean that overall their enrolled class has a higher average than the fifty other schools they leapfrogged due to their low % submitting.[/quote] Yes but save Rochester, Northeastern, Boston University, Santa Clara and many at the very bottom of the list, most have 50-60% submitting. Not that huge a difference.[/quote] Or 40-60. It's not like half are 20% and half are 80%[/quote] The one that really stands out is Georgetown -- 1480, but 100% reporting. I wonder how many spaces it would move up the rankings all schools medians were based on 100% reported scores?[/quote] And Dartmouth too. MIT, obviously, but they wouldn't move up![/quote]
