[quote=Anonymous]Why do you think your kid is more worthy than other kids just because she can test so high on the SAT, and then only after getting private tutoring? There are going to be kids who can't afford such outside help who would have scored just as highly as your child if they could have. There are kids who just don't test well but they might prove to be a better doctor, pharmacist, PT, whatever because they have other qualities that make them stand out. And no on is "taking" your DD's spot anywhere. It isn't a scenario where officials pit one applicant against another. I notice you don't go after the athletes who are given preference - why don't you say they are "taking" your DD's spot? --mother of a child whose main thing going for him in the application process is his super high test scores, which he received without any private tutoring or much studying at all.
