[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Applications have been increasing. More selective schools are filling their spots with early decision. https://www.theatlantic.com/ideas/archive/2022/03/change-college-acceptance-application-process/627581/[/quote] I like how you ignored the fact that this is only an issue for the most selective schools and most colleges accept the majority of applicants. The issue here isn’t that kids can’t get accepted, it’s snowplow parents who think their kids are entitled to acceptances from any schools they choose, and cannot cope with the fact that their kids are not more special than thousands of other applicants. And there are a lot of parents who are more concerned with being able to brag that their kid is going to school X than with helping their kid find their best achievable option. [/quote]
