[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]So you think kids would benefit by making much more work for them to apply to the same number of colleges? Can you explain that logic please?[/quote] Because I think most kids would apply to fewer schools and the amount of work required with data entry is less with word processing capabilities. So I think the kid would make fewer stronger, more tailored applications. And all admit rate would increase because overall application rates would go down.[/quote] You think fewer applications will increase admit rates? Of course it will. Who does that help? No one. Same number of seats at elite colleges, same number of kids getting admitted. All you did was make it harder for the kids and harder for the colleges. Great solution.[/quote]
