1450 SAT, 32 ACT,


He’s competing against a lot of kids with better scores than those numbers for those schools. Those are very good scores but just not what they need to be for Harvard.

I have no idea how the ACT score but a 1450 on the SAT was good enough for the ivies when I went to school. Did they change how they score the sat?

Think about it.

You need the ridiculous cultivated high school resume to get into Harvard. You can bet between 2 equal resumes with the only difference being one has some left wing extracurricular or essay, the lefty one is getting in.
Once you get in grade inflation makes it damn near impossible to flunk out.
Once you get out you are connected with an elite degree and in the pool from which all of our leaders are selected.

Conclusion: Our elite leaders are screened based on their high school accomplishments as much as anything.

and people wonder why leadership in DC sucks so bad
