[quote=Anonymous]I don't understand why people think holistic admissions practices are wrong. Everyone knows that there are not enough spots at these schools for all high achieving students. So the admissions people look at each student as an individual and look at all aspects of their file: rural or urban, race, scores, course selection, interests, special abilities, community orientation, gender, grades, legacy etc. They choose a class that is diverse in every respect. My child was interviewed by a Sherpa alumnist for eg. This seems like an easy concept to me. To offer a quality education a student's cohort must be diverse; otherwise they will not have as many opportunities to understand the world and the context of their studies. [/quote]
