[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Saying to a low income student that you understand her experience because you're "NYC low income" is stupid and cringe-inducing but it's not the same as being admitted to college as a low income student. I think people are conflating the two.[/quote] Not just posters; it appears the [i]author of the article[/i] is conflating the two: [quote]another girl told me that she was low-income because her dad makes $400,000 a year, and that’s “New York poor.” [/quote] So another girl was a clueless, tactless moron. That's not even remotely similar to lying about parent education and employment in the Common App.[/quote]
