The student files are PACKED with numerical rankings. Spoiler: you better pray you’re a 6/9 or higher! This podcast teeters on fake news. It is strategically edited at juust the moment something insightful—and dare I say unflattering about the admissions process—is revealed. Too much pixie dust and half-truths to deem reliable. Hard pass.
