[quote=Anonymous]There are a lot more high-achieving/high ambition kids these days. People looked at who got in and then had their kids take 2x as many APs etc, do more research projects, more awards etc. There was less information pre-internet so only those who were well-connected before really knew what it "took" to get in, now the knowledge is widespread. Add in more generous and more publicized financial aid policies so that smart kids high-achieving low-income kids who would have thought these schools were out of reach due to cost now know better.
