@colligate44 Last year about 30% of Bowdoin applicants did not submit test scores.

In an info session this summer the admissions officer said that since Bowdoin went test optional in the late 60’s, the non-test submitting proportion of applicants has consistently been in the 25%-33% range.
However, Bowdoin does require all matriculants to send in an official test score. So, those are the ACT/SAT score ranges you see in the common data set. Hope that helps. If you post your SAT score we can give you better feedback on whether to send it or not. Good luck!
