Sourcing work doesn't require lots of writing skills, but at least show you went to a good school.
See corrections below:
"acturgex,
I'm not really sure what your motivation is. I'm suspecting (WRONG VERB) that it's to draw in people and get into senseless arguments...(WRONG PUNCTUTATION) which I guess I've been sucked in to (TOO, NOT TO). However, many potential recruits read these boards (OOPPS, FORGOT COMMA AGAIN!) so I feel obliged to correct you.
As for ATK's recruiting schools, you can simply to (THIS DOES NOT BELONG HERE!) go to ATK's site and search for schools to learn more. For example, if you search for Columbia, you will find: http://www.atkearney.com/main.taf?p=2,1,9,4. You'll learn that there is a recruiting team with 10 CBS graduates, headed by an officer who attended Tuck. (ALL OF THESE HAVE LEFT) Funny, it seems there are more than "three exemptions?? (WRONG WORD, SHOULD BE WRITTEN EXCEPTION) from top schools (FORGOT AGAIN COMMA)as you define them. You should also consider that many bright and capable people graduate every year from the "cheap schools" you describe. While not regular recruiting schools, I don't think ATK (like its top competitors) would summarily dismiss anyone from a "cheap school".
As for your grammar, it's terrible. While it's clear that you did not attend one of your "never from these" schools, I wonder if you attended college. So here are some tips in case you still are applying:
"And what a coincidence, these where also among the bottom of their Class."
-"where" -- this indicates location
-"Class" -- in the US, this does not need to be capitalized
"Facts are facts and everybody knows this."
-When making a controversial argument, you should support it with evidence rather than, 'everybody knows this'. In freshman Logic class, you will learn that this is considered a logical fallacy (Argumentum ad numerum). And as a side note, logic is a critical piece of the GMAT, so study up.... (HAHAHAHAHAHA)

Nice! I appreciate your attempt to understand grammar; it??s a first step. I don??t have time to detail why each of your ??corrections?? is erroneous. However, I can??t let one of them go ?? I especially like your correction: "??three exemptions?? (WRONG WORD, SHOULD BE WRITTEN EXCEPTION)," because you in fact wrote "exemption" earlier. See, I was mocking you; that's how this works.
I will no longer respond to your posts and further crowd an already noisy board. I think you have already discredited yourself.
