[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]-Californians.  There are high schools that send 10-20 each. 
-Olympians.  Stereotype is true. I know of  2 personally. 
-[b]Rowers.  I know 6 personally between the kids of DMV, Philadelphia and Boston friends.  they're also all strong students but not more so than any other strong students. [/b]
-kids who do something next-level in terms of extracurriculars. Like they found the typical non-profit but it ends up in the international news or their coding project gets seed-funded by Google.

This is a strange comment...every NCAA athlete that is recruited at Stanford gets in.  It's not like they actively recruit Rowers but just hope they accept kids who can play baseball.  You might as well say Football...because they actually recruit more football players than any other sport.

Olympians in NCAA sports of course are recruited by all colleges...I don't know, does Stanford recruit more than their fair share of figure skaters or snowboarders or other Olympians that don't play an NCAA sport?[/quote]
