<p>This is true. But there also comes a point where the score really is “good enough” when you factor in the time investment and effort to bring it up another 100 points or so. You’ll never find me arguing that your 2200 puts you on equal footing with a 2400 but I’m definitely going to recommend that you don’t spend the next 3 months in intensive study hoping to bring your score up by 150 points just because you think that will make or break your application. If you spent those 3 months on, say, your essay, you’d be helping your application much more and have far less stress. A 2200 really is “good enough” when you look at it that way.</p>
<p>But what you say is true and it does irk me a little bit when people imply that a 2100 gives someone equal chances as the other kid’s perfect score. I mean that’s just giving false hope.</p>
