[quote=Anonymous]Above a certain point re: grades and test scores, many students will be academically qualified. Students who get admitted will have curiosity, enthusiasms, commitments and accomplishments that allow them to stand out from the pack of other students with excellent grades and test scores. Sandburg’s post college accomplishments strongly suggest that she was a good pick who used the opportunities available to her quite well. I say this as someone who’s not a fan of her book, which, I think, overgeneralized from her own experiences as a privileged white women with an elite education and access to powerful mentors and supporters to the rest of us. In fairness though, perhaps I should blame marketing. [/quote]
