[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think this is good for ED1 at Tufts without taking SAT again, given St. Anselm’s known rigor, the fact that only 50-60% of admitted applicants submit scores, and given that the 1500 will [b]still be higher than their 50% (the overall school is what matters for ranking etc.)[/b]

Tufts wants to fill lots of its class ED and has gone radio silent in the last few years on its ED admissions (this always means a school’s ED admission rates are much, much higher and that it is filling most of its class ED).

Tufts will be more competitive at ED2 so stick with the ED1 plan. It is a good one. Don’t aim higher. Don’t aim lower.[/quote

Not so about the 50th percentile. Now, with TO, you have to be over the 75th. If it's over the 75th OP, then it's a decent shot. Is it his first choice? If yes, then he may as well. Why not try if it's his first choice and he does have a chance?[/quote]
I know this is the latest thing to say, but it depends also on the percentage of kids submitting scores. Tufts CDS is silent on ED admits, but does tell us that only 56% of enrolled first-years submitted SAT or ACT scores; some submit both, so call it 53% or so. The 75th score context is more applicable to schools where a larger percentage of students submit and where no ED1 application is involved. [/quote]
