That actually makes sense bc although we didn’t quite get an explanation, the coach said “it’s a lot easier to get to 240 if you submit the scores.”
We had 3 T&F Ivy pre-reads and all 3 wanted scores, even though the schools are TO. We also heard from one Ivy coach who was looking for a high academic athlete, so at least in some cases high (1500+) test scores matter.
I’m not sure how that could work, when SAT/ACT is 2/3 of the AI calculation.
There are coaches at TO schools (of the more selective sort) who require test scores. That is their prerogative of course. I don’t know any TO school where all athletes are required to report scores.
