There are thousands of full A middle schooler with inflated grades
It's a lottery process. People all know this
Who would give it a shit to a TJ parent car sticker?

You are misinformed. They select the top 1.5%. The very very best only.

Using what? A sob story essay?

Writing ability is academically important but your correct. Picking stem students based on writing an essay is like picking a basketball team based on batting average

The top 1.5% at some middle schools that aren’t AAP centers wouldn’t even be the top third at the stronger AAP center middle schools.

The "top 1.5%" is based on holistic evaluation.

It's like selecting a basketball team at tryouts without letting anyone dribble, pass, or shoot, instead, asking each player to write an essay.
