[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]College in the U.S. went from crapshoot to total crapshoot.

Now with no tests, merit, or recommendations plus new quotas for URMs and first time college it’s just like spinning a wheel who picks you for the x colored, x gendered, x race, x geography’s, etc.

Kids are even applying for math or stats (or engineering) just to get IN to the school, then quickly switch to liberal arts or sociology. Total game. So ridiculous.

Meanwhile everyone’s pissed there aren’t enough XYZ folks in finance, stem, med yet no one earns a relevant major or can demonstrate actual interest! Much easier to just do “journalism” blogging about it.[/quote]

Careful your racism is showing[/quote]

Not the PP. but you’re annoying. No racism. But I’d says tests don’t equal merit. [/quote]

How does one show merit nowadays, outside of competitive sports? [/quote]

Well rounded child who writes their own original essays. We can tell. (Well rounded is a huge problem for many snarky moms freaking out about DL in our top private). How about this: I bet you that Senior who wrote an open letter to the school to stand up
for the teachers’ right to choose DL or HL got into the top choice? It was mocked by a certain toxic group on DCUM, but I cheered that kid on the whole way and sure hope the full experience is on the essay. Heck, that letter should have been the essay.[/quote]
