[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP, what schools is your kid applying to. I think if you share that, you may get more specific information out of folks. I have thoughts (and a freshman in college from this area), but it really depends on what schools your kid is applying to. [/quote]
Tulane - last year they admitted 45% of their class TO. Their middle 50 range is 1380-1490, middle 50% 1435. DC has a 1400. [/quote]
Incorrect. For 2022, Tulane’s 50% was 1410-1500. It is right on their admission website under  “Class of 2026” profile. I would not submit a 1400. I know this because we were just looking at the stats. My kid has a 32 and the 50% ACT range at Tulane is 31-34, so he is submitting. [/quote]
Honestly, I wouldn't submit a 32 if the range is 31-34. It's probably below the median and thus will hurt, not help.[/quote]

Our private counselor advised submitting because the sub scores are 34, 33, 33 and a lone 29 in math dragging it down. But I guess we will reconsider. Thanks! [/quote]

I would submit. Chances are the median is actually closer to 31 than 34 with more scores clustered around the lower scores. Even if not, being within the range is very solid.[/quote]

That is what we were thinking too. Plus, my DC is a legacy at Tulane.[/quote]
