[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]HYP (and the rest of the alphabet) selected the students they wanted to admit.[/quote] This. They have institutional priorities and have never been about admitting everyone with the absolute highest GPAs or test scores. Selingo has been clear in reporting that schools want a well-rounded class, and they'll do that with a certain minimum standard. Once they meet that standard (say, a 3.5 GPA for Sidwell), institutional priorities take over (i.e., someone with a 3.7 but fills a certain need will get admitted before a 3.9 student who doesn't).[/quote]
