[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This has all gotten out of control. The class of 2022 should boycott this process and go to community college for a year.  Force these schools to stop gaming the system and making these kids jump through a thousand hoops.

While I agree the process is brutal, I disagree that anyone is made to "jump through hoops".  It's not made brutal by the colleges, it is made brutal by the pure amount of people who insist on a very small number of the 3,000 US colleges.   As the Wargames cliché goes "the only way to win is not to play".[/quote]

True, in theory but how do you not play? My DS is very interested in a school that should be a good fit but in order to be considered he has to do all this extra crap to show intent. [/quote]

I think the craziness has extended far below the top schools as evidenced by safeties rejecting qualified students and expecting kids to visit (during a pandemic?!) or sit through multiple zoom sessions to demonstrate interest.[/quote]
