[quote=Anonymous]Following these threads I don't see that anyone is saying test scores and grades are the be all and end all. Rigor, intellectual curiosity and accomplishments are important to assess. My personal experience is those qualities also exist alongside the grades and test score of the "robots" that posters denigrate. I thnk what people are saying is that they are perceiving gaps between the ideal of holistic admissions and the reality. That worries some including the 60% of legacy kids left out. Our DCs weren't attracted to Harvard but I can understand why the perceived disconnects are disconcerting to those who are. [/quote]
