[quote=Anonymous]This is one area where I like how the UK system compares to the US. They evaluate you primarily on how you performed in subjects/tests based on your intended major. For STEM students, it makes absolute sense that there is a base level of proficiency in math skills. My DD (humanities major) had a large discrepancy in verbal and math portion (780 verbal, 690 math). She only took it once and did not want to prep more to increase her math score and we didn't really push it. She went test optional to her competitive ED choice and was admitted but I seriously doubt that this will affect her performance in college bc she does not plan to take and is not required to take advanced math for her major.[/quote]
