[quote=Anonymous]It would be nice if the decision was based on the whole student or broad set of factors but what happens is each component scores are added and the admissions decisions are based on this sum of the scores without looking at the "whole student" or "broad set of factors" with subjective portions making up about 84% of the total admissions score. The essays and SIS are very subjective and just talking about science and math is not enough since many students with achievements in science and math get rejected each year by getting average scores on essays or SIS.
