[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Are you not submitting scores because you don't have any or because they are low. I've heard that if your kid goes to a private school where they took the SATs, not submitting those scores communicates to the school that they are low. Maybe public school kids who haven't been able to take the SATs are okay.[/quote]

My daughter’s friend [\b]has a mom [/b]with a life-threatening risk from COVID. She chose not to risk it by taking the SAT even though the school offered it. I hope and isn’t penalized for prioritizing her mother’s health. [/quote]

The friend is lying or you are a troll.  You can ask to be placed in a different room if the test is at your own private. Besides, all kids were masked during the test and with good social distancing. I do not believe the story. [/quote]

That’s a really strong and not very nice reaction. You do realize that when families are in crisis with new and terrible medical news that their first thoughts might *not* be to figure out how their kid could still take the SAT, right? Particularly when colleges said upfront that test optimal meant test optional. I hope you aren’t working in admissions because your empathy scale could use a reset. Yes, she wrote about it in the place for a COVID essay.  [/quote]
