Can a sociopath get into Harvard?

<p>"No, he hasn’t murdered anyone yet, and is unlikely to do so in the foreseeable future. "</p>

<p>That’s in itself frightening. While it is in his interest not to disclose this information, it would be to the BENEFIT of the ADMISSIONS OFFICE and the INCOMING APPLICANTS. I don’t think ANYONE wants to room with SOMEONE who represent this SHADY word, “he hasn’t murdered anyone yet.” Of course I am taking this to the extreme, but if you are a socio-path, I would hope that you find a way to diminish if not eliminate this disorder before applying to college where you are as much of a danger to the students as to yourself. Best of luck to everyone who’s applying though!</p>

<p>^Dude… are your sarcasm sensors totally turned off? Reductio ad absurdum.</p>

23

<p>i’m part j.k, part serious</p>

24

<p>Very few sociopaths have murderous tendencies.
They merely lack remorse, exhibit aggressive behaviors, and manipulate others.
No sarcasm here.</p>

<p>Expecto patronum.</p>

<p>how does he have good EC’s then? I assume those EC’s don’t include leadership?</p>

26

<p>“he hasn’t murdered anyone yet, and is unlikely to do so in the foreseeable future”</p>

<p>…</p>

27

<p>i swear to god, if your friend turns out to be my roommate, you’re not invited to my funeral.</p>

28

<p>Hey guys, talking in latin doesn’t make you a cool kid.</p>

29

<p>Expecto Patronum? ha ha.</p>

<p>Latin is fun, especially when it comes from Harry Potter.</p>

30

<p>

How about reading Harry Potter? Does that make us cool kids? =)</p>

31

<p>^I wasn’t trying to be cool… it was the only way i could describe the statement about the murdering…</p>

32

<p>Ummm…to all the people saying that he shouldn’t mention it…shut up.</p>

<p>He definitely should. If I go to Harvard, I don’t want to die. Thank you. Good luck to you and your friend.</p>

33

<p>I wouldn’t worry about it too much. Harvard tracks these boards and the IPs of the posters, so they’ve probably already figured out who the ‘friend’ is and ensured he’s not getting in</p>

34

<p>^ LOL, srsly? Lame… =.= (If they do, however, really do this sort of thing… it’s just a lawsuit waiting to happen…)</p>

35

<p>No college is going to lose a lawsuit based on declining to offer admission to a “sociopath,” especially if the college’s base acceptance is, as Harvard’s is, below 10 percent.</p>

<p>“Harvard tracks these boards and the IPs of the posters, so they’ve probably already figured out who the ‘friend’ is and ensured he’s not getting in”</p>

<p>This is the funniest thing I’ve ever read.
If so, I’m pretty screwed on account of all my Hah-Vahd bashing.</p>

37

<p>alright. I feel much safer to going to Harvard if I am admitted now. :p</p>
