@SpeedDemon posted:Coaches at MIT, along with CalTech and UChicago don't have chits for admissions. Admitted players must have grades and test scores that are similar to the overall class. Coaches at these schools can guide players to the right range of grades/scores and let admissions know through the pre-read process who their preferred students are, but they can't say "I gotta have this one, please flex a bit for me" and get someone admitted. That said, most coaches at these schools have extensive experience getting players admitted, so they will only put the candidates through admissions who they're near certain will get in. That's why their yield is so good; they know what admissions wants to see.
Also keep in mind that the NCAA requires an ACT or SAT score for scholarships. So if you're looking to get athletic money at a D1, D2, NAIA or JUCO you'll need to take a standardized test.
Finally, found this on Tik Tok last night. Test scores at Yale, straight from the players -
Pretty sure the kids with "17" and "24" were just having some fun... I think
