Isn't a 36 ACT score "perfect"? Anyone with a perfect ACT score is getting into any school they wish.
Yes, a 36 is perfect, but a 36 does not guarantee admission.
If you have one spot, who do you take?
John, a white male, from an affluent zip code, that made a 36?
or
Shanika, a Hispanic female from a poor zip code, who is the first of her family to attend college, and made a 30?
99% of the time, Shanika gets in over John.

True. Harvard rejects about half of the 36s. But none who are minorities.

A 36 will always get ADMISSION over a 30. Case closed. To argue otherwise is simply silly.
The more likely scenerio is they both get in.
A 30 may well get a SCHOLARSHIP over a 36 if both students are admitted to the school.
