[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It always amuses me when people presume to know so much about other kids. A very unassuming kid with no school involvement got into a T5 and I started to form an opinion, and then quickly realized I have no clue what this kid does so who am I to judge. I later saw a write-up on them for a merit scholarship and that was absolutely the case, doing very cool stuff no one would know about outside of school. [/quote] +1. And it’s not just knowing some stats. It’s knowing it down to the relevant rank of the kid, then tying that to where the kids go, which of course never breaks down cleanly (higher ranked kids at “lower” schools than lower ranked kids, one kid lower rank but higher SAT, etc). So it’s all just generalized nonsense guided by people’s bias about which schools are better and worse.[/quote]
