[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Ignore this troll. She has been on DCUm for years talking about how her "unhooked" daug got into Columbia from Montgomery County PUBLIC schools. She used to troll the private independent school forum, now she trolls the college forum. she also brags that she went to an Ivy and her husband went to a "public Ivy." Very tedious.[/quote]

Wow, you have issues! You've got me confused with about 10 other posters. Since DD is a frosh, I don't see how I could have been bragging about this "for years." You're also wrong about several other of those supposed points in my and DD's backgrounds.

For the rest of you: this sad bigot has been trying to "prove" that the only URMs can get into top colleges with SATs of 2100, because only affirmative action can explain such "low" SAT scores winning admissions to top colleges. She has a bee in her bonnet about affirmative action letting under-qualified minorities into top schools, to the detriment of more deserving whites (I know, ugh). I was merely pointing out that my own unhooked, white DD got into a very top school with SATs of *gasp* 2100. Because this awful bigot simply cannot comprehend that such a thing might be true--because it doesn't fit her bigoted worldview--she has spent the last 3 pages obsessively trying out various arguments as to why my DD's experience is simply impossible. Now that all her other arguments have failed, she's going to call me a troll.

Uncreative, and wrong. And this bigoted idiot certainly won't be on my family's mind when our 2100 SAT DD collects her diploma from her top 5 school.[/quote]

Looks like you moved on to "bigot" as your preferred term from "troll" after you were accused of being a troll yourself. Why don't you name the supposed top 5 school and describe in general terms what the national recognition was and the readers can see if your posts are reasonable. Just insisting 2100 with no hooks can get you accepted to top 5 school seems unreasonable without more explanation. [/quote]

No way am I outing DD, her school and her achievements to satisfy a bigot, yes bigot, like you. If you are incapable of believing that anybody besides minorities can get into a top college with SATs of 2100, then that's your problem and your loss. It's certainly not my problem.

At this point, I'm addressing other, more open-minded readers, I'm not addressing you. I figure I've done enough to refute your claims that all the 2100s at top colleges are URMs, and I hope anybody else reading appreciates the point and also the need for a little privacy. Over and out.[/quote]
