Yes. 4 B+ in all. Solid As in everything else (no A-). Lower Ivy. Last year.

Yes. Mostly As, some Bs, and 1 C (in a language, unrelated to major). High rigor. Athletic boost though.

We don't count lower or whatever ivies here. Certain ivy pluses have always accepted lower stats - athletes, legacies, urms. It's not unique this year.

And Harvard is in flux. Has it sunk that low already?

Define lower Ivy.

If an Ivy is not an Ivy, what is an Ivy?

David Hogg got into Harvard with a sub-1300 SAT and a 4.2 weighted, which if you know anything about Florida public high schools is like a B/B- average.
