@nightstalker160 Good points. If it were a mathematical equation, these folks would like the formula to change to always get the results they wanted, but not allow anyone else to add their data into the equation as that would be “unfair”, “unjust” etc.
@ljberkow Agree. No AO is going to allow people in who are not qualified. There are many legacy candidates whose scores at any university make them viable candidates.
Telling stories about a single rich boy/girl legacy candidate who did not belong at some prestigious university does not make the story true for all the rest. Nor do stories about one professors opinions about any type of candidate. They are one person’s opinion. Single data points do not create a basis for making decisions. I’m tired of folks who are open to their preferences but will not allow others to have preferences as well. It’s really silly.
