[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]APS kids exemplify what Ivies don't need to look hard for: UMC kids who are above-average but not exceptional and disproportionately White. No surprise they take a battering in the Ivy admissions process. [/quote] "Take a battering"???? Just how many students from one district SHOULD be getting accepted to the Ivies? [/quote] [b]One might like to see admissions rates from APS at least consistent with the overall admissions rates. [/b] Oh well. There’s always JMU. [/quote] Well, I guess "one" might. But that doesn't even make sense. They have a limited # of students per class. They can't accept at the overall admission rate from every school, or even every top-tier school. NO school should see that admission rate. The ivies are (supposedly) looking for the best and brightest; and that's not 15% (or whatever) of APS or any other district. I believe you're just trying to be an a-hole here. [/quote]
