Isn't that just an assumption here, that the kids who did not get picked had the benefit of all those? What if a kid who studied hard to be 'better' rounded than the ones who were picked only for cohort reasons?[/quote][/quote] No worse or better than assumptions about diversity. However you would be hard pressed to find a majority of students in these programs who haven’t benefited from the things outlined above. That’s not to say these students aren’t studying but that does not make them any more deserving than the students who are able to work hard independently and maintain high grades and excel without weekly prep courses and tutors because their parents can afford to do so. An interesting research study would be to poll the current students in these programs about the level of prep work they received.[/quote]

By your own admission this research has not been done, so why do you say that we will find majority of students have benefited from things outlined.[/quote]
