University makes submission of standardized test-scores “optional” for applicants.
It seems likely this game will catch on if, as expected, the Supreme Court’s decision to re-take the University of Texas case results in a ruling against overt affirmative action in University admissions next year.
I suspect the game will work like this: While SAT scores will be “optional” de jure, they will be required, de facto, if the applicant lacks sufficient “vibrancy.”
