What were the stats?
4.53 W GPA and 4.0 UW. 12 AP classes all 5s and 4s, including AP Spanish (so six years of foreign language).
Good ECs and leadership roles. Won a county-wide scholarship contest to study abroad. Strong essay and good refs
Nothing out of the ordinary in other words.
She got 1460 on SAT but decided not to include.
Great stats. The only Brown admittees I know were URM.
AP scores are a type of test score. They lend some credibility to the AP grades.
Why not? 1460 is great.

Mostly it is.
Well, what should University of South Carolina be called then?
U of SC not USC
The two schools fit together well. One is the Gamecocks and the other is the Trojans.

I’m not surprised your student was admitted without scores. While these are good schools, most would not consider them particularly selective.

Right. That’s the info I want to know. Of those *accepted,* how many sent in scores (or rather, did NOT send in scores). Until they make that public, I feel very skeptical about “test-optional.”
