[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Oxibridge are for kids that have good stats but lacking in ECs. Often for academically advanced kids who want an ivy-level education but have difficulty getting one in the US. [/quote] My stats are a few years old but my DC’s private had five applicants to Cambridge the year my DC graduated. Two turned down ivies to attend Cambridge (Columbia and Dartmouth), one pulled their application after getting into an ED top 10 non-ivy, and two were rejected from Camb. One of the rejected got into Stanford for Comp Sci.[/quote] Oxy are great schools. No offense intended if your DC went to oxy. The title asks for NYC, which could be a lot more ivy-central than UMC.[/quote]
