[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]You haven’t figured out that our society values sports over education? [/quote]

But you can get into a good school with amazing academics and zero athletics, but if you have amazing athletics you still need academics that are far above average.

It's higher EDUCATION...not higher athletics.  [/quote]

Then you don't understand EDUCATION.[/quote]

I don't give a rats ass if my lawyer or my investment advisor or my doctor can catch a ball.   I need their brains...period.[/quote]

And you get that, as med and law schools don't look at sports for admission. [/quote]

They do consider it in an applicant though. If you ace the LSAT, and had top grades, plus played a varsity sport in college, and maybe also were the captain, that added time commitment and leadership on top of academic success does stand out to a law school as law requires excellent time management and leadership.[/quote]

Thanks anyway but I want one that honed their time management skills with academic work and internships , not time on the field or in the pool or whatever.[/quote]

That’s great the world need worker bees too.[/quote]
