[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I actually think these high but 'lower than expected' scores would be fine to submit. There will be so many kids with no scores that I think, even though admissions officers have the best intentions, it's a big gamble to admit students with no test scores. If your student has the same grades as someone else in her class, but DC took and got a 1400 and the other didn't, 1400 is looking good and reliable, especially if its within the 50% percentile. I think the school year has just too many variables. Colleges will be nervous about admitting kids who aren't being challenged or actually doing the work bc of DL. [/quote] I agree with this. I keep seeing not to submit under the 50th percentile, but I think there's value in something more around 25th percentile for the reasons you suggest.[/quote]
