Amherst College?

Firstly, I know most of you guys probably hate reading HSers post on here, but I don't know how to get information on LACs. (tips would be great). If there are any recent alums/current students from Amherst that could answer these questions, it would be very helpful.

1. How many kids want to do IB/PE per class?

2. How many kids actually get a BB?

3.  I've heard that recruiting at Amherst is starting to decline, is it true?

4. I'm not an athlete, so would I be screwed for recruiting?

5.  Are there "resume drops" for most BBs? (I've heard contradicting things)

6. Any other crucial information I need to know would be amazing
