[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Sports are a hook like NO other. Some sports parents seem to have a complex about this for some reason. It's not that the kids are unqualified, it's that they have the boost from "maybe" to "yes". When you are talking 5% admit rates this is obviously a huge help. [/quote] How is the sports hook different. And by the way, we're not talking about Big Ten football or even Notre Dame or Duke Lacrosse. We're talking about D3 athletes trying to get into top 25 schools. In those cases, they're SOL without the qualifying stats, as so many parents have shared in this thread. [/quote] With test optional and inflated grades it's hard to argue on stats. I am sure why many schools love test optional. In terms of overall outcome (admissions) recruited athletes have the ultimate hook. All they have to do is meet some minimum range on GPA. [/quote]
