Yes, college admissions is a game.  But then again, so is all of life.  Do you think life is merit based?  I mean look who's president, look at gerrymandering, look at how people vote against their own interests.  Look at networking and how getting a job is largely who you know, not what you know.

It's all rigged and all a game.

We get you would vote against legislation prohibiting colleges from making ridiculous -sized waitlists. Not everyone is as good a parent as you are, apparently, and kids are kids — and some will suffer from the delusion of hope. End suffering. It costs nobody anything. [/quote]

I can't imagine any legislature ever considering limiting college waitlists, most of the state schools need them and rely heavily on them, and talk about a minor issue in the grand scheme of highly rejective college admissions.  If the emotional stress of the WL process is too much for you and your kid tell them not to accept any WL spots.  Problem solved [/quote]

And just wait until you see how stressful freshman year will be
