[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think the discussion about how much of a bump athletics play in admissions depends upon where you are in the recruit pool. Top recruits have much stronger recommendations from coaches vs mid pool recruits have a more mild recommendations. And which sport. And whether M or F. [/quote] 100% to both of these comments. In the case of the poster arguing so hard that there is no advantage I suspect that their athlete wasn't high on the coaches list and they were being strung along in case they lost the recruits that they really wanted. As I had mentioned earlier for mine. Female, her HS team was nationally ranked and she had multiple D1 offers (not Ivy) 780/780 so test scores were fine, actually better than fine because of the strong verbal score. 4.6 GPA, 12 or so AP classes so she had the highest rigor available at her school. She was also at or very near the top of the coaches list. She checked every box for top support.[/quote]
