[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I mean, that test score isn't really materially different than a kid with, say, a 1560. It's basically a lottery at those schools. [/quote]

The problem is these schools are full of applicants with amazing ECs and over the top GPAs.  A test score of 1560 certainly has an advantage over a test score of 1490.  It's not like the one having 1560 has worse ECs or grades, they all have them. [/quote]

Every Top 25 college does holistic admissions. To their credit. 3 questions on the SAT does not equate being class president or editor of the student paper or the volunteer working at the senior center or the internship at NASA or being the captain of the soccer team and on and on.

Does not always equate.  Most of the time, they come together.  The 1580 kids often are the class president or editor of the student paper or the volunteer working at the senior center or the internship at NASA or being the captain of the soccer team and on and on.  [/quote]
