[quote=Anonymous]No "hooks." Schools try to have diverse and balanced classes in terms of gender, race, geography, athletic skills, arts skills, academic skills, etc. Every year, top schools reject some kids with >95% test scores and take some kids with mid-level scores (and even some with very low/erratic scores). There's no "formula" or cut-off at most schools, just as there is no guarantee of admission. A nice kid with varied interests, strong grades and strong references will get into a good school if he/she applies to four or five schools. [/quote]
