[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]There is something truly wrong with an application school admissions process for a supposedly academic school that favors “easy As” from grade inflated schools rather than potentially lower grades from much tougher courses/schools. Where is the incentive for students to challenge themselves? Why is it better to exclude the more capable students? Certainly not all will be excluded, but it seems a great many.[/quote] Because its a public school and is mostly recruiting from public schools. Not much reason to bend over backwards to cater to private school kids.[/quote] +1. And my kid was disadvantaged coming from a private school and did not get an interview. They can't cater to the exceptions.[/quote]
