Did you pick up on any discussion on this? The inverse relationship at George Mason U (test scores not as predictive of success above 3.7) perhaps not as surprising bc possibly reflecting a home bound/captive admissions group? Would appreciate your response re ACT superscoring. Thanks, Joan JTMonland@aol.com A couple of comments:
