[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think you will see most of the privates go back to test mandatory, following the lead of the Ivies. The past 5 years has been a wake up call. Whereas before the College Board was being castigated by equity/social science researchers, [b]we now see that there is overwhelming evidence of the validity of the SAT. [/b] Duke, UChicago, Vanderbilt will go back to being test mandatory. It will percolate down to schools in the rest of the T50.[/quote] This is real but recent. Up until COVID there the research consistently showed that GPW was a better predictor and that SAT scores were typically highly correlated to GPA except in the case of high scoring kids with low GPAs who likely had ADHD or another challenge. Since the out of control grade inflation of the past half dozen years has ruined GPA as an accurate metric reverting to testing seems to be the right path.[/quote]
