[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP I know you don't want to reveal the college but given the stats you mention in your opener, I'd say it was a bit of a crappy school, maybe 3rd or 4th tier. I don't know that the admissions office practices of such a place are as helpful as knowing the practices of the more competitive schools, in that you should always aim high and fall on a lower branch, not aim low and fall on the ground.[/quote] How it really work is you get binned you get 5 Asians who play the violin you get 5 innercity kids you get 5 people from Chicago suburbs you get 5 people from rural America Yes there are thousands of people with near perfect scores and gpas. you could easily fill the class with them. you can't you bin them all and then randomly take 5 people who are great test takers [/quote]
