[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Curious if anyone has more recent success stories with this score (33) and T25 schools/T10 SLACs. With this score, would you apply test optional to a school like WashU or Vanderbilt or Emory for ED1 or ED2? [/quote] So: Does WashU or Vanderbilt or Emory have the courses your student wants? The majors? Would your kid thrive in that environment? What's the student-to-professor ratio in the classes your student would most desire? What are the opportunities like for internships or campus jobs or fellowships or publishing, in your kid's area of interest? In other words -- are you just tossing out "prestigious" schools or has your kid identified schools based on research into schools' academics, majors, size, "fit," etc.? The obsession with rankings on this forum ends up making it seem as if actual academic programs are always second, and far, far below mere prestige for prestige's sake. [/quote]
