Leaning towards submit SAT scores outside middle 50%

My daughter - knowing the ranges wanted to send her scores to all but one - that I sort of talked her out of. She didn’t get into that one.

For her, she was proud of the score - and it was important to send.

So as long as she’s aware of the ranges, I’d let her make the choice.

To answer your question wholly though - I’d say it depends on the school. The reason I mention this is merit - some may require a certain SAT for merit…and if she doesn’t make it, she can’t get merit. But they might have a TO scholarship (usually smaller) that she’d be disqualified for.

But in general - if she knows the implications of what she’s doing - it’s her apps, and if she got a score she’s genuinely proud of, I’d say - let her make that call.

Best of luck to her.
