8. Committees that review the application essays submitted by applicants to graduate schools
sometimes fail to agree on whether the writer of a particular essay deserves to be admitted to
the school. However, this does not necessarily mean that the applicant in question is unworthy
of admission or that the essay was poorly written or otherwise deficient. Rather, it may simply
indicate that the committee members did not work well together and were unable to resolve
their differences and reach a consensus. Nevertheless, applicants are often rejected simply
because of a lack of consensus among the members of the review committee.
Which of the following can be correctly inferred from the statements above?
(A) Most applicants who write essays that committee members fail to reach agreement on are
in fact not deserving of admission.
(B) Essays should no longer be a part of the admissions process at graduate schools.
(C) Applicants are sometimes unfairly denied admission because of the inability of the
review committee members to work well together.
(D) Some applicants can gain admission unfairly by writing untruthful essays that are
nevertheless persuasive to review committees.
