Would be interesting to see what would happen if they applied that formula per each high school, not per graduating body, with each high school getting some guaranteed college slots. Maybe poorer schools would get more attention this way.

That would basally be admitting the valedictorian and salutatorian from each graduating class.

My understanding is that Brown basically does that. This would sort of back that up:
