[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I’m kind of annoyed by all the emphasis on college admission - it makes the high schools take primarily kids who will have the hooks (legacy, athletics) [/quote] What do you think they should emphasize, summer vacations?!? These are High school seniors.[/quote] I think they should emphasize academic and extracurricular achievement. Not just legacy and sports.[/quote] It’s not a zero sum game, the legacies also need great academics and extracurriculars/sports to get in. It’s gotten that competitive.[/quote] For top schools, that is.[/quote]
