[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Some parents do more than others. At this point, it is what it is. Move on.[/quote] Have you met the hockey moms yet? The alum interviewers? The families that set up scholarships at their ivy alma maters when their kids were 13 yo? [b]The ones sitting in th e endowment boards? The ones running the public school or private school foundation (guidance counselors cite this)?[/b] LOTS if families doing lots of college grooming for their kids. Summer camp is an easy one....[/quote] We had one child about the bottom of the class get into Duke. Legacy with an alumni interview parent who runs and donates heavily to Duke and the private school. People still couldn’t believe no one else got in but that one student. Top tier kids were rejected. There are easy ways to game the system as long as you have money. And colleges love their money. [/quote]
