[quote=Anonymous]Not sure what people are complaining about? They did take into account multiple apps as their first point. Clearly, parents today would not do well in reading comprehension sections of standardized tests. First, there is some indication that the average applicant applies to more schools today than in the past. An article in The Atlantic relates that while a handful of school applications per student might have been the norm in the past, now 10 or 15 applications is more normal. More applications per person to the same number of slots at top schools means admissions rates go down.[/quote]
