lucky?

<p>my friend (kinda) got into here with a 2.2 weighted gpa and a 16 on the act.....was that luck?</p>

<p>more like a mistake, or that she is filling a quota</p>

<p>kinda got in...?
were they an instate minority?</p>

<p>I agree with you Jrbrown2008.
Virtually impossible to get in unless the student is there as a minority or with any type of athletic scholarship</p>

<p>no i meant she is kinda my friend, not kinda got in.... And she is white, middle class, and not a first generation, and out of state.</p>

<p>she must be from a state never represented by the school then</p>

<p>shes from ohio...... Dude i'm totally with you guys here i was stunned that she got into here and earlham. Supposedly they looked over her bad grades and scores cuz she has a learning disability, but that still doesnt make ne sense why they would let her in.</p>

<p>Agree esmitty 01
I feel there is a lack of fairness to all the other students who break their back to get into a decent school.
It almast feels like a slap in the face, like it matters more where you are from, than all the work you did in school. Sad</p>

<p>On a different note....I'm thinking of sending an application here (i'm a little more qualified than my friend with a 3.8 and a 1350/1990) can i still send one or has the date already passed?</p>

<p>Why would colleges accept people with learning disabilities? Like if you had one and still managed to get good grades, then it would be one thing (overcoming adversity?). But having a learning disability and not working for grades, she is a huge slacker, and doing bad on the acts, and no extracurriculars. How did she get in here and earlham? That just makes no sense......
Ne way, would i have a decent shot with those stats in my last post?</p>
