[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Why isn't it enough that your super duper Kumon devouring child gets good grades and test scores?  Why do they also have to be recognized at an award ceremony and oh, by someone fluent in their language who can read their name properly?????  Jesus, give me a break![/quote]
s[b]o, because they are super duper kumon devouring kids who get stellar grades and test scores they should not be recognized for their super duper studying? But instead, we should celebrate mediocrity of others and non academic achievements because all super duper kumon devouring children already get super duper test scores  so why bother recognizing them publicly?

Basically, that's exactly what I'm saying.  This is exactly why these kids were rated so poorly on personality in the Harvard admissions data.  There's a disconnect between what you want to see and hear and what the majority wants to see and hear.  You keep driving home how well trained your child is study to the test but no one cares.  They want to see personality, innovation and diversity of thought, approach and skill.  You aren't showing that.  When you have 1,000 applicants and 700 are Asian with 4.5 GPAs, who play violin and tennis, you're hurting your own chances because there is no diversity even within your application pool.  It's boring simply.  I know this hurts your little feelings but as someone who has worked at a college and with admissions staff, their eyes start to glaze over after awhile.[/quote]

Wait-these kids are rated poorly on personality because they have terrible personalities? "These kids"? A whole race of kids with don't have personalit, innovation and diversity of thought?

Please ban this poster.
You have no place working at a college and with admissions staff. I hope someone can trace your identity and out you.
