[quote=Anonymous]I'd note that most colleges and universities have gone test optional; the majority of admitted students don't submit SAT and ACT scores; even schools that are extremely selective rank many other factors (grades, academic rigor, ECs) higher than standardized test scores. If the SAT is such an important measure of aptitude, then why is it so inconsequential relative to other factors in the admissions process? It seems that colleges and universities are admitting lots of kids who have ADHD and other EF issues. Are they all going to end up working at McDonalds and hanging off stripper poles? Wait--probably not the latter--they can't do the carousel fast enough. Is the backlash here from those top 5 percenters who think a kid with accommodations is going to steal an Ivy seat from their kid? [/quote]
