[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]But are admissions really rigged?[/quote] No, they're not.[/quote] Rigged or not, it is not the case that all children face an equal chance of getting in. The math just doesn't support it. The odds are a function of a) the number of kids in your district that apply, and b) the fact that we can only admit a whole child so just like the House of Representatives, the apportioning isn't quite equal. Also, twins. The denominator changes when two kids go in on the same chance, which changes the odds. I can't tell if it is rigged, but it most definitely is not Equal. [/quote]
