[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Hmm. The article: * Legacies * Children of faculty or donors * URMs * First gen * Students from upscale private schools * Top 1% of applicants [/quote] Other than the top 1%, with such a large group of non-meritorious admits, I can’t understand how these schools will remain “elite” in the eyes of employers. The top schools seem to want to ruin their reputations. [/quote] All of these students have merit. It may not be the limited dara points you want. The top schools can take top academic students who also have other qualities that merit them and/or will add to the diversity (and education experience) of the whole class. You could potentially argue your point on legacies, but tgey are highly qualified too. There are far more top students than spots.[/quote]
