[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] I know that professional essay writers charge 25K for writing college essays in MD, and teacher recommendation is a subjective and narrow view of the student at best. This will undoubtedly favor parents who can buy their way in. It has nothing to do with merit, and everything to do with money. [b]Tests remain the most recognized and heavily weighted quantifiable means of measuring the ability of the student[/b]. Everyone knows that they are important and everyone can prepare for it. Those who need monetary help for this kind of prep, they should be given it. In fact even in MCPS, the low income students who are applying should be given the cogat book at the very least.[/quote] That doesn't mean that they're a good means, though. If everybody had the same advantages and opportunities, they might be. However, everybody doesn't. That's the underlying problem.[/quote]
