[quote=Anonymous]Not sure if this is the same argument but I think a lot of T10 admissions talk is hype. Probably half the kids who even apply are not qualified. They're non-starters. Do 1 in 1,000 of them get in on a lark? Maybe but that's not statistically significant. So for the relatively rare high-stats kids who end up competing for these spots it's not really a 6% chance. It's more like a 40-50% chance, realistically. Is that still a total coin flip with bad odds? Yes. But it's not actually a 6% chance for true high-stats, well-rounded kids. [/quote]
