[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It looks like all these self-reporters have submitted a high SAT even though most of these colleges have a very low SAT submission rate?[/quote]

Because majority are white or Asian and not FGLI. Schools want to see those scores. Very hard to get in unhooked without strong stats across the board.[/quote]

Even at Williams College the majority don't submit a standardized test.  Only 35% submitted an SAT score and 17% submitted an ACT score.  Allowing for overlap, less than half submitted a test score.

So those who score at or above the 75% have an incredibly GREAT shot at getting into top LACs.[/quote]
Ofc at Williams- that school is a joke.[/quote]
+1, out tour guide spent more time talking about their experience abroad at Oxford than anything to do with Williams. Then, their admissions presentation heavily emphasized their Oxford program immediately after. I wasn’t sure the purpose of going to a college where it seems everyone wants to be somewhere 1000s of miles away. It’s really sad, because there is none at Oxford even thinking about Williams.[/quote]
