[quote=Anonymous]You also can’t assume that an Ivy athlete isn’t in the same ballpark as other students. In addition to the Academic Index, Ivies average the qualifications of a recruiting class. This means that most classes have at least a couple of really high performing academic kids who kind of pull along someone else in their recruiting class with less noteworthy statistics. My Ivy athlete DC devoted tons of hours to sport, but was also valedictorian and a NMS. Some of the Ivy athletes would have been looking at those schools even absent the recruiting; the recruiting is just a great way to provide some certainty in what we all know is otherwise a crapshoot, and to finish the admissions process early.[/quote]
