[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Test optional significantly advantaged my child who got into their far Reach ED. I feel for those bemoaning the horrific acceptance rates but finally kids who simply aren’t as advantaged by being taught how to take the test are on the radar of the most selective schools. This is a welcome change...[/quote] That is good but it remains to be seen if this is really the end of standardized testing. The ED stats show that the big majority of admitted student did submit test scores. Baby steps I guess.[/quote] It won't end overnight -- but if elite schools discover they can build the same - or better - class for themselves without having to worry about what that data point does to their (evil) USN ranking, then yes it may be the beginning of the end. They need to see the data on the results.[/quote]
