<p>what exactly did you prove....that someone can get into h and co with those number? congrats....it is unlikely to happen for the vast majority of people (especially 5 yrs later). your anecdotal evidence means accounts for little....and your assumption as to how much knowledge some ccers have is also misguided. of course hard stats do not guaranteee anything...but they can give an idea as to how someone will do...and people can do whatever the hell they want. the fact of the matter is that someone w/ 1400 sats would have little chance at harvard admission..and someone with higher stats owuld have a greater chance....sure they could get in with an "awesome all around application." congrats on having one, and congrats on your "experiment."</p>
