[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] I take the point but [b]people here vastly overestimate the effect of legacy status [/b]and legacy status may not impact admission in any event (i.e., the school doesn't say that is the reason for admission, except in very limited circumstances). Athletics might be more useful, but such identifying information is a bit over the top, particularly at smaller schools. And the broader point - that it could just be a good essay or recommendation that is the difference, still matters. [/quote] It depends on the school. JHU? Zero consideration. Cornell? Huge impact.[/quote]
