Differentiation between candidates with equal scores is probably done by going through applications and whatever subjective info is provided there. That can be effectively random, but there's not much of an option at that point.
> in your method if everyone scored 0% you’d still take a bunch.
Yes, and they will. My understanding is it's still a normal school, just with a special selection of students; what are they going to do, shut down for the year?
Lol, this is getting a bit hypothetical... but running a "gifted" programme for a selection of kids that score 0% in the test sounds like a waste of time. I think you'd reasonably be better off just not doing it.
