[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Yes, definitely. This might change as more schools go back to SAT required (Yay!) [b]But many kids this year were waitlisted or outright rejected from what should have been safeties based on stats, with lower stat kids getting accepted test optional.[/b] Apply for severral safeties until the test optional stupidity comes to an end.[/quote] You have no idea what the stats or other aspects of those kids' applications were. Your kid is not entitled to admission to *any* school.[/quote] Uh, yeah, the kids talk to each other. Everyone knows everyone's stats. They know which kids with 1300 SATs/2-3APs/below 4.0 are getting into a school and which kids with 1500/8 APs/above 4.0 is getting rejected from that same school. Have several safeties, even if your kid is that 1500/above 4.0 kid, or they might find themselves with no acceptances, even if lower stat kids are getting accepted to the same schools.[/quote]
