[quote=Anonymous]Getting rid of the essay allows the admissions officers to have to do less work, particularly now that app numbers are up so much. So much for the "holistic admissions process". It also lets them feel better about admitting students who don't write well or can't create an interesting narrative, when those students have other attributes that the school wants. That could be athletic skill, rich/powerful/famous parents, or demographics that they want to fulfill their checklist. It's laziness. [/quote]
