Really insightful. Looks specifically at Amherst, but you really do get a great idea of how it happens. Jim Leher > j00
<p>WOW good stuff! anyone knows of more vids like this one?</p>
<p>great video. everyone should watch.</p>
<p>Very good. Never seen a look into an admissions meeting before.</p>
<p>Thank you for posting this, Neobez! I've tried to put it up on the parents' board, too. I thought parents over there might be interested. Thanks for sharing it!</p>
<p>No problem. I too thought it was a great find.</p>
<p>That was quite fascinating! I hadn't heard the term "hover" before.</p>
<p>Wow that was very informative. I wonder if Stanford makes decisions the same way!</p>
<p>maybe more would like to see this</p>
<p>I've read that Stanford doesn't use committee and that they only use single reader. but try a search here on CC. Many ppl have posted about it.</p>
<p>My guess is that they don't use a similar system at large schools. Am I correct in this assumption?</p>
<p>That made me feel bad about myself and my chances. </p>
<p>So harsh these college systems are. When the revolution comes... I'll be ready.</p>
<p>Oh yes, I'll be ready.</p>
<p>It's sad how they put so little time in presenting you to committee...</p>
<p>I know some other network (CNN methinks) had something similar on Williams some time ago, anyone has the link to that?</p>
<p>Thanks for posting this, very interesting.</p>
<p>Quite a neat video. PBS always does great work. It's basically everything we've always hypothesized, but now it's actually coming from the mouth of a Dean at a top school.</p>
<p>Dean Parker also puts the whole SAT thing in perspective also. </p>
<p>The most important thing are the grades, so drops in grades can jepordize your chances</p>
<p>is there way to get a direct link of the video to save it to my hard drive?</p>
<p>when you go tho the link, there is a box that says e-mail this. Maybe you could e-mail it to your self and then save it to your hard drive</p>
