[quote=Anonymous]1. You don't need to have a hook to be admitted to these schools (lots and lots of unhooked kids are admitted). 2. Among the kids who meet a high threshold (great applicants), it is essentially a lottery. Some very, very qualified kids will not be admitted; some very, very qualified kids will be admitted. Universities do their best to build the class they want, but from the perspective of any single student it is essentially a lottery. 3. Students with hooks get more lottery tickets-- it's still a lottery, whether hooked or not hooked. But the probability of acceptance is higher for those with hooks. [/quote]
