Honoraryamom, I assume that’s why Zimny felt he was safe, as people taken in by conmen are embarrassed to admit they fell for the offer. However, I do feel that holisitic admissions, as practiced in the US, are very, very different from the systems in other countries which determine university admissions through the results on One Big Test. I think it may appear to those outside the system that the game is rigged, and that “everyone does it.” I’m not stating that “the game is rigged,” but I can understand that it might seem that way from the outside, especially if one keeps running into billionaires in one’s social circle with Ivy-enrolled progeny. (For a full description of and debate on the effect of holistic admissions, search the Parents Forum on CC for “holistic”.)
