[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Honestly, what's the difference between stretching the truth on ECs and submitting a test score which represents hours of undisclosed one on one tutoring, multiple retakes and extra time in a quiet room?  [/quote]

In one example you put the work into it (testing prep), and in the other example you pretend you did something you didn’t. [/quote]
 Writing down ECs you never did or greatly exaggerating is akin to having someone else take the test for you. You know, cheating.

Studying for hours to take a test(s) [b]that everyone can take multiple times[/b] is the same as putting in the work in a time intensive ECs that build upon each other and then writing down the highest level attained(without exaggerating).[/quote] Ah the privilege![/quote]
It costs about 40 dollars and is also offered multiple times at public school. That is less than most lower income people spend on cable or Starbucks for a few drinks per month.  And yea you can study for years if you want to with the free resources online. Ah!![/quote]
