[quote=Anonymous]Wanted to come back to say, I am not trying to diminish your experience just because we had a good one. But just wanted to point out that if you had a bad experience with one institution does not mean that all these places are bad and unfair. And in fact, perhaps if you have had a bad experience it is probably better to address it specifically and ask questions and perhaps they will give you the answers you want. The problem is, a lot of qualified kids get rejected all the time, when in reality there is no such thing as a "better" kid, and it often is for difficult and hurtful not to get in. However, the reason one kid gets in over another is not always easy to explain and so the "transparency" you speak of may not really be satisfying in the end. It can only be easy to explain if you admit strictly by the numbers like test scores or grades. With personality and good fit factors in play, it can really just come down to bad luck and not vibing with the interviewer sometimes. [/quote]
