[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The common app makes it easier for students to apply to many reach colleges. Colleges love that b/c it raises their stats. For every qualified student applying to an Ivy, there are 10 who are just going through the motions --even if it is a lot of work and money.[/quote] I agree that there are some who figure "Hey, I might win the lottery so let's lob one in." However, I suspect that most applicants could do the work and honestly believe they have a shot because of their scores, stories and grades (inflated as some may be).[/quote]
