<p>dianal actually colleges are looking for WELL rounded students i never said anything about who was going to succeed. I was talking about how you get in read before you write ok? Academics alone will not get you into college. Without other skills you achieve through extra curriculars you can never make it in the real world. Imagine if your boss found out you didn’t socialize, nor knew how to work with others what would he or she think about you? Academics alone will not get you through life. If it were purely academics, the point system would be grades and scores and thats it. Its obvious that the other categories that are there show that a well rounded student will get those other points which will give them a much better chance of being accepted through the bell curve. Think before you say what i said was fallacious.</p>
