[quote=Anonymous]From the above article by the MIT Admissions Counselor: There is only one coin. There are many sides to the coin, but there is only one coin. And you can flip it however you like. So when a parent says to me, "Why does HYPSM (Harvard, Yale, Princeton, Stanford, MIT, etc.) put so much emphasis on AP's?" I reply "Why do you put so much emphasis on HYPSM?" When a parent says "My kid's value as a person/student shouldn't be measured by how many AP's he/she has taken" I say "...and your kid's value as a person/student shouldn't be measured by whether or not he/she goes to HYPSM." Wonder how that parent reacted?[/quote]
