Thank you for saying this. My perfect stats DC was accepted to GT, but declined from REA school — so I get where the author of the long post are coming from, I really do. I quite enjoyed the poking fun at this crazy system. We are sure perfection probably turned off the admissions reader at the REA school. But what do you do if you end up getting a perfect 1600 in one sitting without much studying/tutoring? Purposely get one wrong? FWIW, DC did not know they were going to get a perfect score.
