[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]A coach for one of the Ivies was scouting at a lacrosse tournament and told the kids they needed a 3.8. He certainly didn’t guarantee they would be admitted, but suggested the standards were much easier for recruits.[/quote] The coaches say that to compete for the best players. Those kids don't necessarily make it through admissions pre-read, just like PP's earlier story about her kid who didn't get into top ten SLAC despite coach's assurances. [/quote] I don’t know what you think a “pre-read” is for an Ivy school. Coach decides he wants you…you show a transcript (somewhat rigorous) that is 3.8…say a 1400 SAT…great you meet the stats and gets quick sign off from admissions. That’s it. Hard to call that a pre-read.[/quote] A) We're not talking about Ivys, and B) I don't think you know what a pre-read is for highly ranked SLACs.[/quote]
