David Hogg will make a lifetime career out of his victimhood.  LOSER.[/quote]

It's pretty clear that Mr. Hogg is not even close to being academically qualified to attend Harvard (which is why a number of other lesser schools handily rejected his application, despite his notoriety and media-savvy credentials).

[b]What his lack of brain-power implies is that he will struggle with his class work while at Harvard.[/b]  It's inevitable based on his (at best) "mediocre" test scores.

I imagine he will spend a couple of years there giving short shrift to his class work and devoting most if not all of his time to polishing his "brand."

Most likely he will try to set up a non-profit foundation or NGO which he can run or otherwise get a high level job at, and then exit Harvard without actually getting his degree because he is needed so urgently elsewhere.

The shame of it all is there must be at least 500 or 1000 black or hispanic kids with better grades and scores who missed out on Harvard because they weren't good at marketing themselves.[/quote]

Bwahahahaha. My degrees are from schools that functionally always rank among the top 5, and routinely among the top 3. I guarantee you David Hogg will do just fine at Harvard, as difficulty is associated largely with the major you choose rather than the undergrad school you attend. How else do you think the Bushes, Kushners, Trumps and other rich half-wits managed to even graduate?

I simply pointed out that Hogg was not admitted to Harvard based on academic merit, which is objectively verifiable as proven by the fact that about a dozen lesser schools rejected him (despite what could be described as his "public service accomplishments" as he wants to be perceived).  That means they evaluated not only his test scores and his grades, but his recommendations, the quality of his high school, course work taken  in high school, etc. etc.

To be rejected by so MANY lesser schools, Hoggs "total application package" must inevitably reflect someone who is OBVIOUSLY (at least "obviously" to an undergraduate admissions office) simply UNqualified academically, someone who they must believe has a good likelihood of NOT succeeding academically at their respective institutions.

So, this is not my opinion, this is the opinion of numerous evaluations by numerous colleges who would have absolutely no reason to deny him admission if he was even remotely academically qualified.

You must understand that this is in the context of his applications to institutions which are either "competitive" or "highly competitive" so all of these other schools are in effect deciding that they are not going to "waste" a space for a freshman on Hogg given that there are others more deserving of admission than he, and clearly so.

As to Bush, Trump, etc. etc., I do not know how many colleges they applied to  as undergraduates and were rejected from, and I don't think that information is available, but it is available for Hogg, because he disclosed his numerous admission failures on social media.[/quote]

Harvard told my friend if she donated 150k, her kid was guaranteed entry [/quote]

How is that different from straight bribery?[/quote]

It's not uncommon, friend of mine went to law school that way.[/quote]

Harvard?[/quote]
