[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The college admission process in this country is broken. The definition of merit has been hijacked by wealthy elitists who will do and say anything to get ahead. If an overseas education can offer a similar or better education I am all for it.[/quote] In the US, college admissions has never had a close correlation with any definition of merit. The admissions game definitely has changed over the past 100 years or so, but in any given year it always has been a game. My spouse has trouble grasping this, because in his part of Europe there is a national academic test for college admissions. One's college options there are primarily driven by the results from that one test. [/quote]
