[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It wasn’t his writing. The Ivies are a roll of the dice. Thousands of supremely qualified and able students are denied every year because they simply have vastly more best-of-the-best applicants than they have seats. It’s obviously very difficult for 17-18 year olds not to get wrapped up in the process and natural to feel like they really have a shot and then be crushed when they don’t get in, but it’s really not about them or their abilities, it’s just the reality of schools with sub-5% admissions rates.
