[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The whole idea behind acceptance rate is exclusivity but the schools are no more exclusive than they were before. Optional test scores and common app just increased the number of apps hence the lower and lower acceptance rate every year. Most kids who are applying to these schools and schools boasting the increased number of applicants are just marketing gimmicks. Most apps do not survive the automated screening. If your DC did not get into one of these exclusive schools that is because of a number of factors including the fact that the entire application process is arbitrary and completely broken.[/quote] What exactly is meant by “automated screening”[/quote] AI or other tools screen out apps below a certain GPA and/or test score.
