If so why would it be more competitive there?

Ok here is a hypo:
ABC org has a rush and 300 women attend. Of those 300 women, 150 exceed the minimum requirement of gpa, community service, and leadership, 75 meet the basic requirements and 75 fall short. Now, the chapter can not accept all of the women and the pool of qualified applicants is extremely large. The organization has the job of selecting say 100 members from a pool of 225 applicants. That means that 125 girls that meet (or exceed) the minimum qualifications are not going to make it. Thus the applicant must do any and everything to make them shine in order to get one of the spots.
Now, if you combne this with a school that has higher requirements than the national org, only the " best of the best will make it" Or to say it another way only the over qualified of the qualified will make the cut because those that meet the minimum qualifications are just average compared to the other applicants that exceed them.
make sense now?
