[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]according to my consultant (who used to do admissions at a top 3). She said it's bc enrollment management analyzes metrics (she wouldn't say specifically but said it's more than just grades) but [b]professors and TAs are involved and so are resident advisors[/b] and that's part of the reason it's getting harder and harder to get in. She also said that going to a non-brand public is better than going to a big name public. [/quote] Professors - yes TAs - no RAs - no Some schools let students interview applicants, but it's more to make the applicant feel wanted and appreciated. [/quote] I'm really skeptical re the claim that profs are involved in undergrad admissions. PhD admissions -- yes. College admissions -- no. Prof who has BTDT at a t10 and who has friends who are faculty at other t10s.[/quote]
