[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Better to use test scores than to hand out admission spots to jackasses who had their mommy start a fake charity (that is abandoned once the kid is admitted).[/quote]

Don't forget about fake testing accommodations.[/quote]

But taking the test six times and cherry picking the best results from different tests is still cool, right?

UMC whites do it all the time, even WITH testing accommodations. [/quote]

But you see grades are inflated (you can attend HS once only) and all ECs are made up or something, but the test is perfectly objective as long as you test prep over and over and take it five times and superscore (cherry pick top scores only).

I don’t object to the test as an additional data point of limited usefulness, but the total fanatical devotion to IT’S THE ONLY OBJECTIVE MEASURE, is to be frank, complete nonsense.

If you think you or your kid has any superior characteristics because they took a test nobody over the age of 18 ever cares about, get help.
