[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I predict “holistic admissions” will backfire in a few years. [/quote] Really? Why? It's been around a long time you know. Seems to be working fine for the colleges that choose it.[/quote] test scores were part of it, maybe there were ignored in a case or two, but you weren't getting into an Ivy League school with a 1050 SAT. Now that they're gone, I think you're going to have more kids struggling with the college course load. You can get good grades and do a ton of great volunteer work and still be wholly unprepared for college. The tests gave schools an indication this, but without them, you'll have kids showing up to Ivy League schools needing remedial classes[/quote] If that is the case, get your DC ready to transfer in next year.[/quote]
