@cinnamon1212 - I will out the school AFTER the RD decisions are posted 
My sense from what the AO shared with kiddo is that they are Jonesing for numbers and upping their standing in the USNWR game. He mentioned something about āTrying to build a class with very high stats for ED, looking for high rankingsā¦.high SATās even though they are test optionalā.
I think I will have to start a new thread after RD for all the good stories we can share!
