[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think the op touched a nerve in someone who is 100% hoping for elite admissions without test scores. [/quote]

Actually, sounds like exactly the opposite.  The OP clearly has a striver kid who is gunning for the Ivies.  OP seems extremely threatened by anyone going test optional and possibly *gasp* getting admitted over her snowflake.   :lol: [/quote]

Eh...there is a different poster on this thread that seems very defensive of their test optional stance and very offended by any suggestion that the best strategy is to submit test scores [/quote]

There are also a couple of posters who keep repeating things like “now you have no excuse not to test,” etc. - as if any excuse is needed.  Some very good students simply don’t test well, period.  Glad there is an option not to submit scores.[/quote]

Sure, but if the test is offered for free during school, refusing to report the score is like reporting a P instead of a grade in a core class.  Colleges assume the unreported grade is a D and the unreported SAT score is 25% or worse. [/quote]

So why are you telling us this? Go tell the admissions people.

It sounds like you’re afraid that test optional will still mean...test optional. [/quote]
