[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think there are a lot of parents of high scoring kids on here who cannot comprehend that the score is not the be all end all. I get it. You feel threatened. My own kid had a difference between score and grade point (score much higher than grade point). I would feel threatened, too, but I do think there truly are kids who are bright and would do well in college, despite not having a 1500+. The evidence is there. Schools have been doing test optional for many years. I get it that it would be great to deny and pretend that the test score is supreme. It just isn’t with all of the prepping that goes on. If you want an example, look at FCPS AAP, which has become completely watered down because people Prep their kids and go to “certain” psychologists for IQ tests. (Yes, my kid was in AAP without prep and an IQ test.)[/quote] High stats students are not feeling threatened by low or medium stat students. They are fearful that admissions seem to be random. Still, the truth is that in these uncertain times it is better to be high stats and full paying. Rest remains the crapshoot that it is. High Stat students need to lock in the best school for them by going ED. If your top choice is also a safety? Apply ED. [/quote]
