Lest anyone take my last post the wrong way, let me clarify further:

You were in favor of test-optional admissions on another thread. Now you’re here complaining that athletes (according to you) aren’t smart enough for college.

You misunderstood. Guidance counselor gave alternatives for a kid diagnosed with a learning disability for 15 years not right before sat or act test. By going that route no state school and many other colleges eliminated. This kid was not an athlete.

Some athletes. Big difference.

Btw, I posted the info regarding test optional as info for any fellow freepers who might welcome legitimate ways to help their children as they search for colleges.

Add with test optional schools you still need to have to have strong gpa and no legitimate high school is going to fudge a kids transcript.
