as in “SAT Subject Test recommended.” I can see how it goes either way. Maybe there’s a bit of a motivation test here. If you really want to do this right, you do what we recommend.

Or maybe they say: We’re smart enough to make a decision based on GPAS, essay, SATs, letter of recommendation. And we’re smart enough to say what we mean.
