[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP here - Restating the statement. I think holistic admissions is there and is fine but colleges should also say that, if you don't have a very high GPA (basically nothing less than A's), please dont apply. They would want you to think you have a chance, so they can show their selectiveness.[/quote] Colleges don't need to say anything. Your complain is that more straight-A students are choosing to apply on their own, despite knowing the low acceptance rate. [/quote] No, my complaint is that they make kids believe that if they don’t have perfect GPA, they sill have a chance through holistic admissions. I don’t think 56,000 duke applicants had perfect GPA. The non perfect thought they had a chance[/quote]
