100 points isn't that much. The average score is 1000-1100. The elite universities expect 1500. Tutoring, even if it gave you 100 points, isn't going to cross that gap. I'd say it's still relatively fair. Fairer than essentially any other admissions criterion: grades aren't comparable across schools, extra-curriculars are much more about money spent, etc.
