At some schools, “recommend” does mean “required unless there are financial constraints”, but they usually make that clear

I don’t recall that type of recommendation for BU, Lehigh, Maryland, GW or Wisconsin, all of which we looked at. Lehigh used them for placement, but not admissions (My D was accepted without taking them). A couple others said they’d consider them but didn’t require/expect them.

Emory says “encouraged but not required” - a little fuzzy.

Bio-E is 83rd percentile, Chem is 50th. I’d say submit just Bio-E or neither. I’d probably do neither everywhere but Emory, which would get Bio-E.
