[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I will say it - I think schools didn’t admit her bc her essays were about her mental health struggles over getting Bs during Covid. I wish the system wasn’t this way - we talk a good game on mental health - but I think societal actions prove another thing. I also think business is an incredibly oversubscribed major. [/quote] Agree. Few kids can put together a resume like that without some mental health issues but schools don’t want to know about that. They want you to pretend like that’s just who you are: a natural hard-worker with high standards who can work 60 hour weeks, excelling at everything you do, and not feel stressed. Absurd.[/quote] +1 The article even mentions that she started taking anti-anxiety drugs at age 7. She was the wrong poster child to promote for the cause.[/quote]
