[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Anyone who has not been through college admissions in the last few years does not understand the current landscape. There are most definitely tens of thousands of US students with those credentials. Throw in international students and kids of billionaires/celebrities, etc. and it is, indeed, now a crapshoot to get into a top school. The good news is that now the lesser-ranked schools have lots of kids with these stats. The workforce is global, you need to compete globally now. Might as well start in university![/quote] If you go to the various college websites, you can find posts like this every year going back to the early days of the internet.[/quote] And? Admissions gets harder every year, and every year people notice that and say it’s getting harder. Tuition goes up every year too. The fact that people notice it every year doesn’t negate the fact that it’s happening. [/quote] Well admissions is going to get easier in coming years with the population cliff. Current HS freshmen will start seeing that. [/quote]
