What school is this and when was this? I went to one of the schools in Calgary that's full of bright kids and nobody had a 100% average... even the kids who were on the IB curve (which does make getting 100% a lot easier).
I laughed at this, because clearly whoever wrote it is clueless:

I don't know if the Ivy league goes after anyone... you apply to them, not the other way around. They also claim to have no merit-based scholarships, everything's based on financial need.
