[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]TO is starting to fall out of favor. Even the “easy” schools are starting to reinstate it (Bama will now require test scores unless the applicant has a certain GPA). [/quote] But, in my opinion, neither GPA nor test score works without the other. MOST kids who get through truly rigorous courses with a 4.0 (or more) should also be able to get a reasonable score on a standardized test. So not requiring test scores for high GPA kids, in the era of grade inflation and lowered expectations, may make the problem (again, in my opinion) worse. [/quote] I don’t disagree, pp. But my kid had a 3.75 UW GPA from mcps and got a subpar SAT score despite prepping. He is doing fine in a state flagship, earning 3 As and 3 Bs his first semester (rushing was definitely a big distraction). [/quote]
