[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The well-rounded kid is such a middle-class invention. Colleges want wealthy, highly-successful kids and alumni. [/quote] They want billionaire’s offspring and don’t care how successful the kid is. They also want students who thrived in terrible conditions. The perseverance., drive, tenacity and self discipline it takes to have top grades and outside talents while all around the kid is chaos, drugs, poverty shows a student who deserves a place at a top college.
