[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I don't understand this. Aren't admissions more competitive than ever? Aren't these the superhuman students who aced the hardest classes, scored extremely highly on SATs, had very time-consuming ECs....? We are told nobody has a chance at these schools, and yet, those who are actually there, can't read a book? How is this possible.[/quote] These kids who are doing so many different things… can’t do one or two of those basic things thoroughly and deeply. We’ve basically demanded kids be Instagram ready with their resumes and apps, without caring about whether they have learned or understood a damn thing. English majors are also way way down in this country. [/quote]
