It is getting competitive out there, I think

@RockySoil
I understand your take that the system is flawed. I agree. And the test prep for the sake of test prep is silly. I’m pretty sure it doesn’t help the kids actually succeed at the university once they get there.

@Leigh22
Totally agree. How do you identify a score due to daily test prep vs an underprivilegded kid who busted their butt against all odds to achieve the same or lesser score? Are they chucking the lesser score automatically and missing out on the true overachiever? The AO job is not easy. They are supposed to know the schools in their areas, but that’s a job I’d never want. I’d feel certain that I had missed someone deserving. I wouldn’t be able to sleep at night.
