| i dunno, but it seems really ridiculous for accusing schools of tufts' syndrome - even tufts itself! we all know that they're excellent institutions, so why can't some of us accept that they're just pulling the semi-random acceptances that the Ivies pulls. if Harvard doesn't accept someone with a 2400, then people accept that Harvard probably was looking beyond the scores and didn't the student was a best fit. If WashU, which is a super-great school - ivy quality and all that, rejects someone with a 2400, people assume they're just doing it to raise their stats. maybe, just maybe, WashU doesn't think the student is a great fit. |
