		<title>Getting into College Is Like Auditioning for “American Idol”</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Sometimes I get so frustrated at Simon, Paula, and Randy on “American Idol.” I think the singer sounds great, but the judges say he or she lacks the “it” factor. Or they let singers through who don’t fit with what I think reflects an “American Idol.”
