[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]they're smarter. in my day, it was the top 10% of our well-resourced high school with a huge leg up for full pay kids (90% of them). Smart kids with prepped SAT scores and in-school ECs. Competing against a bunch of kids just like them. There's a map of applicants back in 1990 (so more than 20 years ago) and basically the midwest, mountain, southern, southeast, and most of California didn't even apply. They were, in all regards, regional privates. now the top 10% of private school class, who is also president of the class, and is full pay has no chance without another, major hook/honor/national award. and applications come from around the world. [b]the overlooked fact is that once these schools went need blind, the game changed.[/b] [/quote] Yes. Need blind [b]AND TEST optional[/b] changed the game.[/quote]
