So faggots, why aren't you athletic or talented?

If you're going to apply an athlete applying at a private college, you're more likely to get an acceptance letter as opposed to just to a valedictorian with nothing to his name but good grades.

In fact, normalfags with a high GPA get turned down all of the fucking time, where as athletes or musicians or whatever with a high GPA have a higher chance of getting in.

The truth is, that admissions is driven by the same principles of the marketplace that rule American culture in general. Recruiting athletes early= better success for college teams= happier alumni(ae) =more donations. When recruiting actors, musicians or writers, or even just all around good people, means more money, then they will also receive "likely" letters.

So, why aren't you you above average as a human in general? Do you plan on not going into a private university or what?
