[quote=Anonymous]TROLL ALERT. Hate to burst your bubble, but at top 10 schools with 60k applicants, some AOs have admitted that they are culling up to 50% of the applicants before review by AI selection for GPA and test score cutoff (if kid submits scores). They have said 20 years ago they used to get 13k applicants and the number of AOs hasn't increased in the same exponential manner. Nobody can do a thorough holistic review on that many applications. Period. They will have a few designated readers browse that pile of rejects just to see if something extra, extra EXTRAordinary is in there--but 99.9999% of the time those are all flushed. The fact this was even stated publicly is pretty big because they are all completely full of sh&t at these top schools when they say every single application is holistically reviewed. Not.[/quote]
