[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] So, tell me please...is there any truth to this? How much tougher will getting in these programs get? [b]The shift seems to be that instead of catering to the exceptional student with a need for more challenging coursework, it is shifting to students who want acceleration and rigor that should have been provided by the home-school! [/b] Ok, so what extra hoops are people jumping through to get in? More coaching, tutoring, volunteering, participating and winning competitions, SSL hours? What, what, what? [/quote] Why would you conclude this? More students may (or may not) be applying. But it's still the same number of students getting admitted. As for me, what extra hoops did my kid and I jump through to try to get in? None. Did my kid get in? I don't know yet, obviously. Would I be happy if my kid got in? Yes. Would it be a disaster if my kid didn't get in? No.[/quote]
