<p>Well, what the card did say was:</p>
<p>“Through information provided to us by the College Board or ACT testing programs, we have identified your child as a student who might be a good candidate to selective colleges such as Yale.”</p>
<p>From hear we can say:</p>
<p>1-If it was because of the PSAT, they wouldn’t have mentioned the ACT.
2-They would never consider anyone a good candidate for merely signing up to get mails from colleges.</p>
<p>Furthermore, trust me, I am completely aware that the AVERAGE student has SAT scores from 2100+ . But who said that an SAT score is everything? lol</p>
<p>Anyways, yes, all this is merely for early admission for regular admission I would never be as crazy as to only apply to Ivys and top schools. That would be insane.</p>
<p>I have a couple of schools (State ones) that I know for a fact Ill get into as a safety net during normal admission.</p>
<p>But thanks for the precaution!</p>
