[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]What HYPMS looks for is someone with a unique ability.  A candidate with 4.0 GPAs with 12 AP courses plus tons of ECs, while impressive, is a dime and dozen.  A musician with potential like Justin Bieber or a Tiktok influencer with huge followers is unique.   It is simple economics about supply and demand.  There is an oversupply of 4.0 GPAs candidates with 12 AP courses plus 1600 on the SAT but not enough candidates with the potential of Justin Bieber.  Of course, the school will take the candidate with the potential of Justin Bieber.  It is not that hard to understand.[/quote]

Agree.  People are missing the point.  Those schools want innovative thinkers and leaders, not worker bees.  Sure, you have to be able to work hard and grind, but to what end?  Something new and interesting, not just for a grade or to win some competition.  That is why they take the Justin Bieber or the influencer.  It's the charisma and leadership potential. Being president of the debate club doesn't;t really show the same leadership potential.  They are looking for something special. [/quote]
Crackheads are innovators and leaders? LoL
Quite to the opposite, those so called “worker bees” possess way more intellectual prowess than you crackheads and therefore are much more likely to be innovators . Creativity is an intellectual thing. You crackheads just don’t have it regardless how popular you’re on TikTok.[/quote]

someone's bitter?
perhaps, you are a worker bee?[/quote]
