[quote=Anonymous][/quote]....The senior at William Floyd High School applied to 12 colleges because he feared he wouldn’t get into a single one.

He now must choose from the eight Ivies — Brown, Columbia, Cornell, Dartmouth, Harvard, the University of Pennsylvania, Princeton and Yale — which boast acceptance rates of 14 percent to 5.9 percent.

He also was accepted into four non-Ivy schools: Duke, Stony Brook University, SUNY Geneseo and Binghamton University.[quote]

Smart chap.  A Black male student can never trust (or leave to chance) he will get automatic admittance nod from an Ivy school --- particularly when the admission officers may be like many of the DCUM posters.  It is simple not the historic theme or precedent of this country's fine heritage.  If your name is not Bush do not [b]ass[/b]ume you will get in any where.  That's got to be your mind set.
Leave no stone unturned and if you are lucky count your blessings and make a choice.  Some prefer to have the cards in their hands rather then game the system (like many we know here) and apply ED!![/quote]
