[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]That is no different from most peer LACs. Williams, Amherst, etc are only 40% submitting SAT, while Pomona is 37%. A lot of people in California apply test optional since the UC system is, so that explains the little gap almost entirely. [/quote]

Then why do we/most people assume Williams and Amherst are academically rigorous and have high concentration of intellectual kids? Is this just based on pre-Covid, pre-test optional prestige? We know Caltech kids are smart bc they have high mid-50% SAT. [/quote]

Because they (along with Pomona, Harvey Mudd, Swarthmore, and Haverford) consistently ranked among the top 25 colleges and universities for highest [b]test scores in 2007-2015, when they were required.[/b] [/quote]

Interestingly, it was during this period that CMC had their fake SAT score scandal. In 2012, Claremont Mckenna admitted they had been falsely inflating SAT scores on the Common Data Set for many years to to move higher in the rankings. [/quote]
