^^ slipper1234,

Well I got into WashU and I know I certainly was qualified. And by my numbers, scores, and activities, I might even be elitist enough to say I’m ‘higher qualified.’ I was also a top student at my high school and accepted WashU over Cornell. So really, I’m not sure what you mean when you say WashU waitlists ‘overqualified’ students. And I certainly know my friends at WashU, who were 2250-2300+ SATI leaders and 4.0/valedictorians in high school, would certainly not understand your assertion. All I know is that WashU accepts high school students of top caliber.
