[quote=Anonymous][quote]The school apparently asks applicants to engage in some type of physical/sports activity during the interview. It's not something they do just to have your boys blow off steam. They find something observable and discernable and apparently valuable to throw into the applicant assessment mix. They don't tell you ahead of time what the essay will be about. Or what the math problems will be. Why should they tell you ahead of time what the physical/sports activity will be. Trying to find out ahead of time? Cheating may be too strong of a word. But trying to gain some type of unfair advantage? Yes. [/quote]

What kool-aid fountain do you drink from?   What a bizarre explanation and argument for cheating.  Are you the standard for typical parents at schools like STA, Sidwell, and GDS?  I certainly hope your children are endowed with a little more common sense about a silly game of football and basketball? Can one garner National Merit Semi-Finalist attention for this activity ... or is it the STA Heisman trophy?

Pure garbage.[/quote]
