I have said this before, but the admissions system at so many US colleges looks very strange to British eyes. There is special treatment for people who play sport, whose parents went to the same college (especially if they give money) and for those who have the right sort of hobbies. If that was not bad enough, there are different rules for different ethnic groups. It really is quite extraordinary.
