[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote]With hundreds of kids competing at JO’s per event I assure you this is not a great way to get into college.[/quote] Compare this against tens if not hundreds of thousands of students playing a more common sport like football or basketball. The competition is literally multiple orders of magnitude worse if you’re trying to use them as a backdoor to ivies. [b]To be a recruited athlete for football, basketball, or track you need to be an incredibly talented superhuman who won the genetic lottery.[/b] For fencing, squash, or rowing you need to be wealthy and somewhat(but not necessarily extremely) athletically gifted. [/quote] Huh? I have not seen this for football players with Ivy offers. They have been good football players but not absolutely outstanding / amazing. It's not the same as being recruited to MI, OSU, TN, etc. DCUM kids do not play football, though, do they?[/quote]
