With the recent news of Yale going test optional alongside more T20 colleges, I’m worried that the academies might go the same route. I go to a small rural school with very little extracurriculars besides the big ones (NHS, student government, etc..) Not only that but we have no APs, IBs, or honors classes. The only thing that allows me to compete academically with everyone else is my ACT of 34. I’m currently studying hours every day alongside CFA prep to increase this to a 35 or 36 however I’m worried that the academies may go test optional and heavily reduce my ability to be competitive academically. I know one of the rules of this forum is to not worry about things outside of your control, but I can’t help but feel a little demotivated in continuing my ACT studies with the thought lingering.
