It is a shame when some of our Country’s top institutions are looking for candidates who have not experienced stress, haven’t been challenged academically, and haven’t learned that they need to work hard. I think many of these schools would be better served by looking into the work ethic of the student instead of their grade inflated transcripts.

I have seem many “bright” but “lazy” kids get into top schools - the problem is that when they get out they are still bright and lazy.
