[quote=Anonymous]The highly privileged child of the Indian doctor in a small rural town in the South will be held to the same standards as one from Choate. On the other hand, a straight A first-generation student (of any race) who is the pride of the town will be judged differently. Test scores won't be as important as long as they indicate basic capability to succeed. The personal essay and recommendations will be decisive. But, you have to keep in mind that there are 5,000 small rural towns and the Ivies can't take every valedictorian from those towns. [/quote]
