<p>I never said the people that get accepted don’t have stellar scores. I’m saying that people who get rejected ALSO have stellar scores. You said that people with lower GPAs and SAT scores “rarely” get accepted above those with higher scores, unless they are rich or play sports. You are only looking at your side of the equation, I’m telling you to pay attention to the other half of the people with stellar scores that GOT REJECTED, and THEN you compare it with the people with less-than-stellar scores that got accepted. You make it sound as though its a complete number game, when its not nearly as simple as “who has the higher SAT and GPA”</p>
