[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]AOs balance talents, not majors. [/quote] Not always. AO’s look for kids that meet institutional goals. That could mean filling seats for certain majors. [/quote] True, for schools that admit by major. For schools where one does not declare until the end of sophomore year and most of the students change their intention from the time they are admitted, seats are filled in less popular majors by distribution requirements. Curriculum planners carefully plan requirements to be sure all students take subjects in many different areas. My engineer at an ivy is taking a Roman history seminar in the fall. It is very popular among engineers and science majors because while it is a lot of reading and papers, the professor rates very highly for energized and interesting discussions . Sure some are majors in art history, but for others it is an elective that fills distributions.[/quote]
