[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Some selective liberal arts colleges have been test optional for a few years. How has it worked? Does anybody who knows care to share?[/quote] I haven't seen data quoted, but it's hard to imagine that a test-optional highly selective LAC's process is scalable to the level of the UC system. Inherently more subjectivity involved.[/quote] I don't understand the scalability point. Why not? There are probably a dozen SLACs and midsize universities that have gone test optional. Meanwhile, some big state universities like Michigan have not gone test optional but have taken an increasingly holistic approach to evaluating applications. [/quote] Schools like Middlebury have fewer applicants so they can can take more care to decide if the applicant is a good fit. UCLA is the most applied to school.[/quote]
