[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I totally agree. Although it seems rough, I think countries that base it all on one exam have a system that makes more sense. Set a lower threshold for kids from below a certain income level to ensure parity.[/quote] +1 this is the way to do it, not by skin color. ITA, OP. It's nuts. Some of the deferred vs rejected decisions DC got made no sense. DC is a smart kid, and I know they will be fine wherever, but the whole process just stinks, causes unnecessary angst. You have FAFSA, CSS, Common App, extra app.. Good gracious. I filled out less paperwork buying a house that's more expensive than the most expensive college. IMO, after a certain threshold, college acceptance is a lottery. I have a younger DC, and we have to do this all over again in a few years, though at least now I know what needs to be filled out. But what a PIA.[/quote]
