[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Except those 1500 SATs would’ve been more like 1380s 25 years ago. And GPAs? Please. [/quote] Exactly. I think people sell themselves short. Plus back in the day, kids were not micromanaged like hot house flowers by their parents. [/quote] The internet happened. In my day, in small town Illinois, nobody applied to an Ivy League school. Not in 100 years. They went to ISU or U of I or some of the small regional privates. Kids who wanted something really different went to Iowa. Notre Dame was our Harvard. Now that same school has the top 20% of the class applies to all these schools and some get in. Multiply that be 10000s of high schools across the world. [/quote] Interesting. I'm in an affluent suburb of Chicago, and there are some kids applying to Ivies, but certainly NOT 20% of the class. Iowa, U of I, Indiana, Wisconsin, etc. still rule. [/quote]
