I find it amusing how a 240 AI is spun to be impressive in this article. Then you see the academic numbers and they're laughable.

What? Unless I'm misinterpreting http://www.nytimes.com/imagepages/2011/12/25/sports/25ivy-GF..., it seems that a 4.0 GPA and a 2400 on the SAT doesn't even get you a 240. How is a 240 AI "laughable"?

Sorry, I meant 210. 1300 sat. 4.0 high school inflated gpa. That's the article's example of a smart athlete that miraculously is rejected.
