[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]TO decisions are NOT one size fits all. They have to be weighed in context - the student's stats, the school's CDS, the high school's acceptance data, the application cycle (ED vs. EA/RD), hooked vs. unhooked, etc. [/quote]

This is specific to UVA though. [/quote]

I realize that, and my opinion on the matter stands. UVA isn't globally different than any other school with a TO application offering. No matter what the Dean J harpy says. [/quote]

UVA has never cared about scores as much as other schools. So it’s not just like other schools. [/quote]

And yet, it has fewer kids enrolled who applied test optional than schools like Vandy, which used to really care about test scores.  [/quote]

Vandy is known as the school to apply if you are white/rich parents/good grades /horrid scores.[/quote]

I don’t think that is who is getting in, unless donors or legacies.[/quote]

Ummm. Definitely more than a few questionable admits… of course not “most” but…

Private school here tho. [/quote]
