[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]25 out of 499 going to an Ivy isn't bad. That's a solid 5%. Have we seen other schools with Ivy admits that high this year? [/quote] less impressive if they are all hooked (legacies or recruited athletes)[/quote] Why? Even if they are hooked, they still have to be strong students. Very few unhooked students get in at all TBH. [/quote] Hmm...mmm....mmmm you'd probably be surprised at the athletes. Not all of them will be strong students, certainly not as strong as many rejected non-athletes (SAT scores will be even as low as the 1200s). The athletic hook is big. There are certainly athletic students who are also very strong students academically. [/quote] Depends on the sport. Golf and tennis and rowing are not sports with tons of pull and also are sports where there are probably a decent number of qualified candidates. Soccer, football and basketball may have a little more leeway. [/quote]
