[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]most top schools are test required.  Only a few trying to game admissions (chicago) or shit ones (emory) lag.[/quote]
Washu, Columbia,  Northwestern,  Duke, Vanderbilt,  Rice, Notre Dame,  CMU, Umich, Uva, are TO. UCB and UCLA are blind, but they arent shit schools? [/quote]

All that keep the policy are trying to overcome location, play games with admissions rates to look more selective, or keep options open for sports recruits. [/quote]

D1 schools don’t care about test scores other than athletes meet minimum scores (which are very low).

This is not the case in the Ivy League, which is DI (or at least Ivys that are not TO). Scores need to be within range. They may be on the lower side of the school's range, but they're not low. People talk about the crazy high acceptance rate of athletes, but that's only those athletes that have been given the thumbs up by admissions previously based on GPA/scores. Many more don't get to the point of applying.[/quote]
