Thanks for staying with it, as this was not an easy concept to put into words.

If your kid will submit the ACT, I recommend checking each potential school’s ACT superscore policy. For schools that superscore the ACT, where the acceptances cluster on Naviance may actually be a point or two lower than what those kids’ scores looked like on their applications (if kids at your HS typically take the ACT more than once).

If you kid is solely an SAT taker, and most of his/her classmates are as well, then the SAT data should be pretty reliable.
