[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]So if a student doesn’t submit test score, its obvious they did less than 1500, and if everything else is great, rigor gpa etc they are at a disadvantage, cause than the college knows kid didnt do good in SAT? ie, less chance of getting in? Honest question… wondering the logic behind test optional.[/quote] Test optional allows them to meet institutional priorities (FGLI and URM). Test optional should only be used if you are FGLI or URM. If you are a HHI NOVA kid with college educated parents, you better submit scores. High scores. [/quote] College admissions is a zero-sum game. In raw numbers, which demographic do you think apply - and get accepted - under test optional in the largest numbers? It's not URMs. [/quote] To a top 25 school? Definitely URMs[/quote]
