Maybe a silly question, but why submit scores when admissions is test optional?

Do people believe that omitting scores actually hurts their odds? Seems like unless you score a 35 or 36 on the ACT (or whatever the SAT equivalent is) that you would be best served to leave it out?

I don't believe illusions because too much is for real.

- I don't see how omitting scores can help you. It has to hurt you. It should hurt you. NedoftheHill 10:04pm · 1/18/22
  - I can't imagine it would hurt you. They are going test optional for a reason. NDavenue 10:17pm · 1/18/22
    - Not sure how it is fraud to make tests optional. Great way to weed people out... NedoftheHill 10:22pm · 1/18/22
      - Admission expressly states that an app with or without scores are evaluated equally. Pretty clear.NT NDavenue 10:27pm · 1/18/22
        
        Yeah. That seems crazy. I wouldn't bet money on that. NedoftheHill 10:35pm · 1/18/22
