[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Despite what some posters are saying, scores still matter if you are white, Asian, or rich. That may not be woke, but it’s true. Test optional is for admitting URM, first-gen, and low income. To have a good shot at admission, your score should be above the school’s 50th percentile, ideally around the 75th percentile. Also, many colleges require applicants to apply to a specific school, and scores can vary depending on school. A quarter to one-third of admits at selective schools go to diversity applicants and athletes. You will be competing with the upper half of applicants. Applying to publics, you must take into account quotas to admit state residents. There are also international students, whose applications are ramping again with the change in Administration. International students are full-pay, so schools like them. After accessing all these variables, be reasonable. People like to dream, but being reasonable yields better results. [/quote]

Test optional also benefits athletes (who are predominantly white) and legacies, also predominantly white (if not a HBCU).  Rich kids also have an advantage in ED.  Cry me a river.[/quote]
