[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Someone got in from DC’s school who has several patents pertaining to insects and has developed a novel mosquito repellent and is an amateur blacksmith etc etc. It’s kind of ridiculous. [/quote]
I really don’t see why this person should be at an elite school for just being weird. Like these aren’t interesting or impressive ECs to me, just strange ones[/quote]

Hello?!? They want innovators and big thinkers. Not kids who have been programmed to get perfect test scores. This isn't hard.[/quote]

What about kids, like mine, who just get perfect scores, but aren’t programmed?  It does happen.  [/quote]

Since they dumber down the SAT there are hundreds of perfect test scores and thousands of perfect super scores.  I mean almost 10% of asian kids get over a1500.  Literally thousands of perfect or near perfect super scored kids.  [/quote]

This is true. There are thousands and thousands of really high scoring students.  Over a certain threshold, you need to bring a lot of other things to the table to gain admittance  to some of these schools.[/quote]
