[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Have US colleges ever said they are looking to admit a class with the highest possible test score and GPA stats? I wasn't aware that it was ever a goal of any selective school.[/quote] Certainly not when it comes to "diversity"...[/quote] What does this statement mean? Would you mind spelling out publicly what you might or might not be hinting at?[/quote] You know exactly what it means. Colleges do not even pretend they want the highest test scores and gpas because they need to fill their diversity quotas.[/quote] Quotas? Are we living in the 80s? I think the bigger point is that the top colleges were never interested in having just kids with the highest GPAs and test scores (not in 1890, 1930, 1960, 1995, 2015, or today). Unfortunately, at different points in their histories, it has sometimes been at least partially for some not so great reasons (money, religion, race, sex, ect.). [/quote]
