[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Case Western just early-admitted 23 students who were clients of one of the pay-for-play research companies. Stanford accepted 11. Most are from China. Agreed that some AOs definitely do not see through this . . .[/quote] Isn't it safe to say that the person who would go after this kind of work is also someone who is going after the big program, grades, and ECs that also look good on an application? it doesn't make sense to assume the person was a mediocre student who was accepted JUST because they published an article. [/quote] Not mediocre. But the sad fact is that someone who does fake research is a huge advantage over your DS/DD for the same 4.5 GPA and 1590 SAT. Quite often they can get in with lower GPA/SAT than your DS/DD. [/quote]
