[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]whatever.  Good luck to any of you who have kids who don't have perfect grades and resumes but Ivy ambitions.  My kid isn't applying to any Ivies so this really doesn't impact me.

The kids who ran the Ivy tables in RD was the valedictorian at a top private school.  He/she matriculated to the original SCEA school. [b] He/she had a 4.0.  All the 3.95/1580s and below got shut out.[/b]  I guess they should have worked harder. [/quote]
That’s not how it works. I don’t think you understand top college admissions. You just feel like you needed to blame someone.[/quote]

no, i didn't have a kid in the class.  It definitely happened and it happens in private schools when you actually have a GPA spread.  It's far less likely to happen in public schools where you may have 50 kids tied with the top GPA.  [/quote]
GPA/score is only one of the many factors to consider for top schools. You made it sound like college admissions are ranked by those only, which is really laughable and shows your ignorance.[/quote]

Yeah, it's your fault for not being a legacy or urm or a recruitable athlete.[/quote]
