[quote=Anonymous]Comments like this are idiotic and not helpful If you read these boards, you would think all kids gets perfect SAT/ACT scores and takes 15 APs and is an inventor, starts non-profits, plays banjo with their toes, creates computer games and so on. I get it. College admissions have become incredible ridiculous. I wish I could attend college today. I grew up in the foster care system (yes, really), got free lunches, graduated 5th in my rural high school class and went to a big state school. One school, one choice, one application, lousy SATS. Two degrees later, I moved to the DMV and have a rewarding job. If I had been applying today, I'd talk up foster care, making it, staying the course... Nobody cared back then There weren't all these ridiculous hooks and bs. Never talked about, just applied. No indigent background hooks. I get the concern. What a bunch of cr*p. [/quote]
