[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]European way, at least in the UK, is also somewhat holistic. Academic proficiency matters more there, though, and I think they consider the right mix of holistic and academic qualifications. Not sure their system would work in the US unless we also switched to making kids lock in their majors when they enter college. For example, great math and physics test scores are going to matter if you want to major in physics, but not so much history. [/quote] Top U.K. schools practice hardcore DEI to ensure that they are not completely dominated by private school kids.[/quote] The DEI that they use is mostly by income and location. IMO, that's fine. Also, UK schools mostly look at your test scores. They don't really care that much about your extra curriculars, so their students aren't [/quote]
