[quote=Anonymous]Like many others, I’m not sure something as complex as “adversity” can be summed up in a single number. Some of the articles have had admission officers saying the same thing—that the point of the application is to get all of the relevant information about the student in order to understand the potential obstacles the student had. However, if this train has already left the station... Any school that uses the “adversity” score should be required to crunch some numbers and make them public. -% of kids at each adversity level that were admitted -Retention rates of students broken out by their adversity scores -Etc.
