[quote=Anonymous]If you start with a really stupid metaphor ("The Golden Ticket"), dressing it up with hypothetical numerical examples doesn't make it any smarter. These are empirical questions and various colleges have provided empirical answers in a variety of public contexts. See, e.g. http://www.thecrimson.com/article/2011/5/11/admissions-fitzsimmons-legacy-legacies/ Why multiple posters think this has anything to do with homework load is beyond me. It's not as if these colleges are conducting a nationwide (or international) search for the HS students who have spent the most hours doing homework. [/quote]
