Surprise in Harvard ALDC admissions

Agree. Not to mention why would someone who excels enough to gain admission at Harvard/similar look for easy courses, especially if 1. they are given a unique opportunity via FA or 2. their parents are sacrificing to pay? Doesn’t make any sense that kids at Harvard or other tops schools are going to be looking for the easy A. Sure maybe a few.

Sure some will look to fulfill core requirements in subjects they don’t enjoy with easy courses, but filling an entire 4 years with fluff, IMO very doubtful.
