[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Colleges admission pay attention to gpa, scores, and maybe a little to essays. Everyone is acting like they dissect the application. This is 100% not true. [/quote] This is 100% NOT TRUE! If it is true how can you reason the admissions that happen so subjectively? i.e. a kid with higher gpa and test scores is denied admission but a kid with lesser stats is admitted?[/quote] Um, because the kid has something the school wants. It doesn’t mean the school looks deeply at essays. They’ll overlook GPA or find a way not to count that GPA if they need a certain skill like the best tuba player or soccer goalie. A colleague of mine went to Yale because he was an athlete. He was very insecure about his academic profile. [/quote]
