gollark: So come up with better scoring criteria, don't just bias the whole system.
gollark: Also, essays are the enemy of mankind and must be destroyed.
gollark: I agree, extracurricular stuff is a weird thing to base admission stuff on and probably not all that relevant.
gollark: Standardized test things aren't really ideal in terms of judging how good you actually would be about a subject, but if you actually can measure merit well it seems a way better thing to base admission stuff on than the alternatives. It is kind of a big "if", though.
gollark: I mean, it is still discrimination, it's not *reducing* it.
