I do not have any idea what it takes to get into one of these expensive schools and I do not have any idea what what kind of high-paying speech therapy opportunities there might be to pay off ridiculous student loans, but when I applied to Arizona State two decades ago, they required:
1. 1150 SAT score
2. 3.0 -or-
3. Top third in your graduating class

Please note the or. I was 1350, 3.1 and not top third, but I attended a high school where it seemed like most students were motivated to earn good grades. Unlike ASU. The SAT score goes up to 1600, so if an Asian American needed a perfect 1600 to get in, a Latino American would only need an 1150, the same as Arizona State.

I could not imagine keeping up at one of those schools. How would they?
