[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][b]This question just illustrates what is fundamentally wrong with admissions at highly selective schools nowadays where specific demographic de facto quotas are prioritized over real academic ability.[/b] If your DC is afraid of having to compete, why is he/she considering going to the school over alternatives that are a more appropriate fit? On the other hand, most of these schools have absurd grade inflation and DC will likely be able to graduate with a degree that is no indicator of true ability (although trying a STEM major with 1310 SAT will likely cause a lot of anguish.[/quote] Agreed. I'm tired of white full-pay students being given an advantage just because they're white and are full pay.[/quote]
