[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]How can they tell the difference between hot housed and normal kids, lol? My friend's son got in with [b]very low scores[/b] but a decent GBRS. Why is he more "deserving" than someone like OP's kid? The whole process is nuts.[/quote] I doubt anyone is getting in with very low scores. I think the committee is assuming that a kid with 125 scores who is highly regarded by the 2nd grade teacher and seems un-prepped is a better candidate than an in-pool kid who looks like the product of tutoring and prep camp. I have no idea how they're distinguishing between the two groups, other than based on teacher comments and parent letters. [/quote]
