[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Why give slot to dying kid? Don't go on about difficulties in application. Your income is your income. Your neighbor's isn't.[/quote] Your kid is compared against the others in their school. Those kids usually come from the same zip code. So her kid is competing against kids who’ve had tutors, coaches, and consultants for anything and everything their whole lives. Against kids who’ve had enriching summer programs and an expensive hobbies and sports with the best programs outside of school to improve their talent or performance. Her kid is disadvantaged in the application process for this reason. That said, I would not advise anyone to highlight medical conditions for reasons already mentioned.[/quote]
