<p>^^I agree with you in general, JW, but, IMO, Ted has been one of the “good guys” in college admissions. Like the UC’s, tests are not as important to Chicago as they are at say, the Ivies. Unlike some colleges that will give a break to a low gpa-high test score kid, Chicago would do the opposite (assuming great essays). It doesn’t mean that test scores are unimportant, but just that they aren’t #2 right after gpa.</p>
