[quote=Anonymous]I think the poster who constantly argues in favor of test optional: (1) is trying to sabotage other applicants or (2) has a kid who got in test optional and is unhappy there is starting to be a stigma about such admissions. I had a senior who went through the cycle last year from a rigorous private. A full third of the class got some type of national merit recognition for their test scores and those same kids got into the highest ranked schools as compared to the rest of the class. If my younger kid bombed the SAT, sure, I would have them apply test optional. But only after having them do everything they could to bring the score up.[/quote]
