<p>Logically, the answer would be no. But I was thinking, one thing that gets talked about a lot on CC is "Tufts Syndrome". So, when applying to schools known for having TS, is it better to have a 2300 than a 2400, simply because it's less 'intimidating'?</p>

<p>Logically, the answer would be no; theoretically, the answer would be no; empirically, the answer would be no; pragmatically, the answer would be no; viscerally, the answer would be no. . . . The answer is no.</p>
<p>HAHA. i wish =)</p>
<p>im going to shoot for a 2300! 2400 is just bad</p>
<p>2400's are overrated. Now, 2300's, that's where it's at! (yes, I understand that was not grammatically correct, but you get the point.)</p>
<p>To add to GFB's list -</p>
<p>Mathematically 2400 > 2300.
Apologies, but that's just how it is. :p</p>
<p>You are, of course, free to believe what you want.</p>
<p>Depends. Like, 2300 on your second try is better than 2400 on your fifth. </p>
<p>A lot of the time, I'd say that 100 points doesn't make that much of a difference. Not everyone with 2400s gets into Harvard. Many do. Not everyone with 2300s gets into Harvard. Many do.</p>
