[quote=Anonymous]"[b]Most high scorers won't make it past middle management[/b], so an elite institution wants other characteristics to better predict future accomplishments. " I have no idea of why anyone would assume the bulk of high scorers are not multi-faceted. At our school the brightest students are the ones that do little to no prep for those high scores. They are also leaders in their communities and socially engaged. Really kids that are blessed on multiple fronts and likely genetically wired for their lives to make a difference. The statement does strike me as prejudicial against racially profiled groups and I doubt actually authored by an Asian American.[/quote]
