<p>This still puzzles me. D took PSAT’s (3x), just missed the cut for NMSF, took SAT’s 3x (good but not perfect scores) and ACT once (high scores). She says she checked the boxes, but we got relatively little mail from colleges. The only competitive school she heard from was MIT (letter referenced her high math test scores).</p>
<p>The school she attends is well known for sending lots of stuff. She received nothing from them.</p>
<p>I have no clue.</p>
