All this assumes a rationing of college admissions. Whereas in America there are more than enough college positions to go around.

There are limited Ivy League seats, but that's all marketing. They use the same textbooks as your state U; you sit in similar 300-person halls to hear Intro-To-Whatever lectures.

I'm not so sure we need to shake up admissions processes to suit these self-appointed 'best schools'.
