[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote/]1/4 of Amherst’s incoming class is FGLI. Plus minimum 1 student from every state and territory, and as many other countries as possible (40, I think). After athletic recruits as well, how many slots are left for unhooked suburban public school kids in such a small class? ED or no, statistically it is an incredible long shot.[/quote] Not like that's the end of institutional priorities either. Diversity of academic interests, race (working around SC as able), political and religious affiliations, certain number of instruments for the symphony and jazz orchestras, contributors to the school paper and student government, good number of clubs, gender balance and LGBTQ+ representation... The list goes on and on. The only kids I've known who've gotten into Amherst and Williams have either been academic stars or recruited athletes. Mostly the latter.[/quote]
