Seriously, Tench, these aren't real students. Your perspective is jaded by the fact that you were a real student and probably had to score much higher than any other race to get in. And you went to class.

What you are ignoring is that some people go to elite universities and glide through by taking BS courses. A famous basketball player went to a very elite university and had very low grades for admission. I knew his tudor at this university and she told me all his tests there were administered by her orally. He graduated, became a great pro player, and is now in the basketball hall of fame.
