[quote=Anonymous]At my kid's school, here is the breakdown of how athletic recruiting works. 1. Really high performing students getting into really good schools they would 'maybe' have gotten into otherwise. 2. Good students getting into schools they 'probably never' would have gotten into otherwise 3. Average to low students getting into schools They would 'absolutely never, ever' have gotten into without sports. 4. Bad students who are asked to take a PG year so that they won't fail out of the school they never ever would have gotten into without sports. There are spots reserved for athletes at top schools. It's a fact. It seems a little antithetical for academic institutions to make loopholes For athletes, but they do and they are free to do so. They make the rules. [/quote]
