You're looking at it like they should just work harder to be top 10% at their school. I dont think anyone disagrees with working harder.

The problem is that not all schools are created equal and often the top 50% of say a "great" school is way more advanced than the top 10% of a bunch of shitty schools. So why should the top 10% of those schools get auto accepted?

My brother has a side gig and tutors high performing kids at the Thomas Jefferson School for Science and Technology. One of the elite high schools in the United States.

Those kids are brilliant and they're getting an outstanding education that will prepare them for college and beyond.

None of them are transferring to a mediocre high school in Fairfax County to game the system. They know that high scores and a good resume trumps being a big fish in a tiny pond.
