I can report that with regard to reporting test scores and choosing to go TO or not, there is a wide variance as to the recommendations of counselors (HS and independents) with respect to these decisions (as evidenced by the volume of discussions on counselor list servs and in FB groups). As with any profession, there is a wide range of capabilities and decision making processes.
I have yet to hear an AO (at a school that superscores and doesn’t require sending all scores) suggest that lower scores/those not used in the SS calc could hurt an applicant.
