[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Just take a look at the thread titled Bad Choices today about the student with a 3.7 uw who is disappointed with her options. Not to pick on that poster, but more generally, since the rapid move to TO, there are assumptions made by applicants and their families that they never would have made under a tests-required scenario, assumptions that don't quite verge on entitlements, but not recognizing that to college AOs, TO = low score.Some colleges also pretend that this isn't true, but it is a simple fact that TO applicants scored "low"[/quote] There are an equally large number of posts by people complaining that their kid had a "good enough" score to get in, but still got deferred or rejected. It ain't the test score or lack thereof that's making the difference at highly rejective schools.[/quote] +1 The test score itself isn't the determining factor folks. [/quote]
