[quote=Anonymous]This is why test optional needs to be abolished. Test scores can be an easy way to get kids to take a realistic look at their chances of getting into a school. It also gives schools an easy metric to filter out candidates who are too far below a range they would consider. Schools can obviously filter out applicants based on first gen, geography, or race, but it would probably cut out a chunk of students who are just throwing darts. MIT is bringing back test scores because they saw that kids who came in under TO were struggling and they need a more concrete measure of their academic skills. I’d be curious to know how that impacted how many applications they received after this change. [/quote]
