[quote=Anonymous]I applaud Dartmouth…but once again they still leave the admissions process opaque. Why not just tell folks that anyone with a score of X and above on average does well at Dartmouth, so if you score X or above you have cleared our SAT threshold and we no longer care about your absolute score. Also, this article kind of argues for the SAT hardship index that was attempted several years back. It essentially took your raw score and multiplied it by a factor to account for underperforming school. That idea was quickly abandoned, but this article basically says Dartmouth is creating their own hardship index. Hence, why a 1400 if your school average is 1100 is better than a 1500 if your school average is 1450.[/quote]
