[quote=Anonymous]I started at a top-ranked liberal arts college in 1989, from a very good public school in the MD suburbs. I had a decent resume - top test scores, a bunch of AP courses, active in extracurriculars - but I highly doubt I'd get in today. First, my grades didn't even put me in the top 5 percent of my class, and I wasn't a standout in any of my extracurriculars. Still, I think the article is generally right - it wasn't easy to get in to the most competitive schools. There were a lot of strong students in my school who were disappointed about not getting into their ideal colleges.[/quote]
