[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I still find it hard to believe she was rejected at every school including the HBCU. Something isn't right. Sounds like Sidwell gave terrible recommendations. Glad she is at UPenn now. [b]Also she was a track star at Sidwell and surprised she did not get in anywhere. [/b]The whole thing is so fishy.[/quote]

Sidwell is a very small school.  Being a track star at Sidwell doesn't mean much. [/quote]

She was DC State Champion in the 100 meter run. This covers  all DC public and private schools. That actually does mean much. [/quote]
About 1% of students in DC do track and field as a sport. From a national athletic standpoint, it means close to nothing.[/quote]

She is an All-American. She was ranked on a national level.[/quote]

But she wasn’t recruited by any university, so how good was she really?[/quote]

She ran at Penn...[/quote]

Based on TFFRS she ran in 3 meets in 2016. Mediocre results. That was it. [/quote]

but she ran in college, and according to the athlete worshippers on this forum, we should all believe in her grit, leadership, teamwork and time management because only athletes cultivate these skills.[/quote]
