<p>Lol whatthen, you were speaking in terms of who deserved to go. If I was to go by your logic, a 3.0 would be deserving as well, and so on. The point is, UF is the flagship for the state and standards for admission were bound to increase accordingly. The fact that I went to a prep school was only mentioned to support my previous point about the statistical competition within one’s respective school. The level of difficulty is besides the point. Rather, the important thing is the statistical quality of students within the school. You asked me for their stats, and I responded with their stats. While I do not know every extracurricular of the individuals I was speaking about, quite frankly it makes no difference. Aside from the fact that UF doesn’t pay much mind to EC’s, not every individual with very sub par scores would have been boosted to that extent by EC’s. You don’t have to question my motivation because I was only contributing a point of view towards your thread. In addition, if everyone acted in terms of the motivation that you expect of me (acting or speaking in terms of only my own interests), every individual who indulged in the amount of information handed down to them in the admissions process on this site would simply back out once accepted. There would be no SSobick or ASMAJ on this site to provide any context. I have no anger towards the admissions process. It is simply a faulty system, just like virtually every other system on earth, and frankly I am not pleased to have seen so many friends be inconvenienced due to something like inter-school competition.</p>
