[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]More unqualified kids applying doesn’t make the school actually harder for qualified kids to obtain admissions. I agree with the original poster. [/quote] The definition of "qualified" was changed. Formerly limited by a test score, now not limited. The definition change resulted in an expansion of "qualified" applicants. Grades and scores only correlate for about 2/3 of students, according to an old study. The other third is split, 15% higher grades than scores, 15% higher scores than grades. (Setting aside the idea that so many assumptions treat grades as though they were standardized.)[/quote]
