[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Submit a 1460 buts you at about 95th percentile.  It validates that GPA is not inflated.  [/quote]

OP, based on the responses here, it seems like there are three main theories:

1) Submit the score: it is in the ballpark for the school so even if doesn't make a difference in the acceptance decision, there is no harm done.
2) Submit the score: it helps by validating his grades and there will be a slight bump in admissions chances relative to not submitting (the college will assume a much lower score if they don't submit).
3) Do not submit the score: it will hurt because the school cares more about the score pulling down their published range than it does about whether your kid can do the work.

[b]FWIW, if it were my unhooked kid, I would submit a 1460 from a public school in this environment.  Not because I have any insight into the actual game theory of admissions but because it's a great score, I'd want my kid to be proud of it, and screw any college that would decide to use the test optional policy to manipulate their selectivity optics[/b].
