[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][b]Harvard and Yale are generally not where top STEM students go.[/b] But to your point, every admissions officer can tell what a student is likely to major in. Someone that has won poetry prizes and does theater is not likely to choose engineering. Someone that is president of the math club and has won science awards is not likely to be a gender studies major. And so on and so forth. Selective schools have decades of data. They generally know what they are doing as they put together a broad and varied class. There really aren't a lot of humanities students trying to sneak into engineering or business. [/quote] Not always true. We know a kid who had his picking between Princeton, Stanford, Yale and Harvard and it came down to the later two.[/quote] For STEM?!?!?[/quote]
