Theoretically yes, but I think that many colleges still don’t really believe the profiles. Luckily most of these schools with either many super-high-achieving students or no grade inflation are catering to colleges that do get it.

I’m kind of shocked by the mean rejections. What are these colleges thinking? Mine got nothing but “We had too many wonderful candidates, we are sure you had some wonderful choices even though we didn’t have room for you, and we wish you the best at wherever you are attending” sorts of letters.
