I have always told her that she is more than a score and that colleges are looking for more than a test score. Of course, I am the parent and what teen really believes what Mom tells them? After going on several college visits, she is now realizing that Mom is correct. All of the schools she has visited have stated that they are SAT/AP/ACT optional and that they are looking at the "whole package" when they decide what students to accept. She is now realizing that the school system and the AP teachers that push this garbage are the liars in this game. I think the latest scandal is the best thing to happen to higher education. How many more lawsuits and scandals will it take before the College Board finally comes crashing down?....can't be soon enough for me. edblisahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01792046029260177146noreply@blogger.com
