[quote=Anonymous]Someone who plays sports well enough to be recruited, at Division 1 to 3, has physical gifts that most people simply do not. My kid could work at a sport for 6 hours a day year round and would still not be recruitable or competitive (has some mild disabilities that affect coordination). He is also a nationally ranked debater but that only checks an extra-curricular box. No recruiting or admissions tip. I think the notion of admissions preference rankles people because it rewards those genetically blessed in one particular realm. [/quote]
