[quote=Anonymous]It is a 40 page thread full of implicit insults to the quality of   the students that are getting in as compared to the students that are left out.  Denying it is gaslighting.

My DD’s waitlist info for Wesleyan was instructive with regards to a LOCI, it noted the student te do not have to provide any additional accomplishments as she was fully qualified to be accepted.   It is what it experienced parents have been saying for a year that current parents refused to believe applied to their child, no matter the stats, schools with acceptance rates under 20% are now a lottery or those that are qualified, even when in the top 25% of stats.  TO has significantly enlarged the pool.

Your problem is, I think, with the structure of the education and how it is perceived by highly competitive colleges.  You can say that without questioning the competence and achievements of the kids that are being accepted in this new world.  And know that given the same privileges of your children in the private school the accepted kids might have outperformed your kid and the fact that they did not have this opportunity does not make your child more deserving than those other kids.[/quote]
