Dartmouth: SAT/ACT Requirement Restored | National Review

"The cruelest joke about removing the standardized-testing requirement for elite colleges is that the policy -- designed specifically as a way to increase minority enrollment -- achieves the exact opposite of what colleges intend. Rich and privileged mediocrities used to have their parents donate to secure admission to elite schools. Now, in an era of exponentially increased competition for admission, the rich simply hire six-figure 'college counselors' who stage-manage a child's entire life down to the em dashes in their admissions essays."
