[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Ok? So? Many great students get rejected from those schools. Schools select the students they want. It is not a reflection of your intelligence. Move on and do great things! It was their loss.[/quote] +1000 The level of entitlement among high stats kids is strange. Just because you have high stats does NOT guarantee you admission to an elite school. And all of the schools he applied to are elite and highly selective for CS---most have admission rates in single digits for CS, many in the low single digits. So yes, it is entirely possible to get rejected by all---he did well and got accepted to two Elite CS schools! For kids who are seemingly so smart, it is shocking they do not understand statistics and the admission process. [/quote]
