[quote=Anonymous]I think the population increase---and also with that more kids who would not consider college in the 80s are now applying to 4-year colleges. And, common app has made it very easy to apply to a large number of schools. As, pp stated, we used to have to individually apply to each separate school with their own very different forms and essays. It was a chore...and, yes, on a typewriter... and physically mail them in. This was late 80s/early 90s. Now throw in Test Optional everywhere and HS grade inflation (there were not so many 4.0-4.0++ GPAs back in the day--they were very few and hard to get).[/quote]
