>In the aggregate, both GPA and SAT

You're literally commenting on a thread about how the SAT is being removed from criteria and your whole point is that the intangibles (you used a bunch of ambiguous words like diligence and etc and I explicitly pointed that out). So have you lost the thread of the conversation?

>Students who do poorly in High School generally won't succeed in Eng. programs - let alone be accepted in the first place.

You really need to look up and understand the begging the question fallacy that I alluded to

>And FYI raw aptitude can't be taught but all sorts of other things can i.e. having basic mathematical literacy and just 'keeping up' from grades 1-9, means that kids have the confidence and opportunity to participate in 'STEM' things which they would be blocked from doing otherwise.

I do not understand what you're saying. On the one hand not being diligent and having good attendance should preclude students but lack of "confidence" shouldn't?
