<p>My view upon the entire application system for colleges has been inspired by the best modern, nonfictional American literature character, Holden Caulfield. I have absolutely no doubt that these colleges are making the high school students to just be phonies in themselves in order to complete the application process. The SATs have been driven harder and harder upon students as these SAT IIs are becoming more and more popular to test the student’s knowledge even harder in their subject of choice. By and by, more colleges require higher SAT scores; and also require SAT IIs to be accepted. The uniqueness of the student is only now realized through a short essay that is required with every application to every institution. This is where your point needs to be put across that you deserve to go to that school or that you are unique among all of these smart seniors entering college. The college application process has become so systematic in even the past ten years that students need to superimpose stress in their minds early in their senior years in order to apply for their colleges or universities of choice.</p>
