<p>GMTplus7: thanks for sharing this article, however it’s a little dated as it’s back in 2003… 11 yrs ago. Even the SAT scoring system was different back then. </p>
<p>And it is not just top private school issue that contributed to the low acceptance % at top colleges…there are other factors played in the top admission game esp. for Asian Americans, including overly high academic standards due to the affirmative action and large number of Asian overachievers… It’s another long story we can discuss separately… Could be part of the reason why I don’t target schools like Phillips.</p>
