[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] I think that is one of the reasons colleges want strong extracurriculars, the primary reason being they want engaged students adding to campus life. Perfect grades and top SAT scores while spending 30+ hours a week doing other activities shows they can handle the rigor. I don't think colleges really want students who will struggle academically, at least not many of them.[/quote]\ They want all this other crap for the same reason banks used to hand out toasters, because there was a limit on how much you could pay out in interest on deposits so the banks gave you a toaster instead. There is a limit on how finely the SATs will select at the right end of the curve so they look to other indicators that you are in the 0.1%[/quote]
