[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Is there a reason why UC schools (Berkeley, UCLA, etc.) are not on the list?[/quote]

Forbes had an SAT cutoff for the list of schools they gave the c-suite to evaluate, so did not include the UCs because they are test-blind [/quote]

How did they adjust for the % of test optional students? [/quote]

They don't nor does USNWR[/quote]

I do think US News should get an estimate for each TO school, instead of publishing the fake SAT score range reported.[/quote]

How would they do that?  They'd be making up a number.  [/quote]
There’re different ways. [b]They can back out the SAT scores of a subset of kids using PSAT scores[/b], then use a model to extrapolate the scores by adding other factors. They can also supplement with pre-TO data.[/quote]

This is now going to some crazy extremes that nobody would ever do.  Nobody is going to provide specific kids' information to do what you are suggesting.[/quote]
