[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I totally agree with OP. My DS, who is very bright, worked his butt off to study for the SAT/ACT and wrote a ton of essays for his applications. Some girl got into one of his top choices (he did not get in), for hockey, it was early junior year and no grades at that time. Obviously, life isn't fair, but what kind of lesson is this to learn? If you play a sport you can go anywhere, grades don't matter, but if you study and have good grades, good luck to you. I just wonder if these kids are getting into top school b/c of sports, can they handle it academically?[/quote] Do you think she didn't work her butt off at the rink, and in the classroom? I don't know what you mean by "no grades at the time" did this girl skip freshman and sophomore year?[/quote]
