[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My student was accepted to a HYP with a 1530. He was WL at Duke, which was test optional last year (he did submit the 1530) and was later admitted off the WL. Counselor thought that schools like Duke wanted to see a 1550+ because they feel the need to keep those averages as high as possible while HYP is more comfortable in its admissions strategy and doesn’t need to prove itself. Anything above 1500 is strong in their view. [/quote] Duke, Vandy, Washu, Chicago, at these schools, a high test score helps their image.[/quote] Straight from the mouth of a WashU AO “770 on Math is fine and nothing above is an advantage but 770 and above Verbal is an advantage”. Makes sense give the much higher number of high Math scores relative to high Verbal scores.[/quote]
