How Does Tufts Make Its Decisions?

<p>

<p>Said committee will add the natural log of the SAT to the square root of the GPA, divide by the class rank, and multiply by the number of ECs plus the number of essays submitted. Then they will sort the results in a smoky dark room using an IBM 360 mainframe running on punch cards, only to ignore the results completely and make admissions decisions based solely on intangibles. The lesson in all this? Do as many ECs and submit as many essays as possible, and hope that I am wrong :-)</p>
