3 out of 5 stars Conflict of interest   October 16, 2009
S. LaCour (Malvern, PA)
15 out of 18 found this review helpful

The descriptions of individual institutions in this guide are reasonbly comprehensive, and are an easier way of comparing schools than navigating through a variety of inconsistent web sites. However, the glaring omission that shows the College Board's conflict of interest in publishing a college guide *and* owning and administering the SAT exams is apparent in the lack of information about which schools require SAT scores and which do not. The SAT is rapidly becoming a relic and is being dropped by more schools as a requirement every year. As such, it's important for prospective students and parents to know whether this expensive, time-consuming, less-than-ideal exam is required on a school-by-school basis. If you want to know that you'll need to invest in a guide published by an organization that does not have a vested interest in the ongoing use of the SAT.
