[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]my kid made it into yale EA. She has a talent on the national level, is 1st in her class, took a ton of APs and got great LOR etc. 1500 SAT. She is in a group chat with accepted students and the GC is 250+ ppl so far. They all have "something". High grades and tests are not enough, not even close.

FY!- we make 175K HHI, have another in college and our total cost is 18,979. The ivy league is extremely generous. [/quote]

Congratulations. My kid is at Yale now and loves it. For Yale what I notice is that they select happy, self-assured, non-competitive kids, just wait until you start meeting her classmates. They appreciate what their classmates bring to the table. Maybe it is the same at other schools but I stopped thinking about it as being a "lottery" there is definitely a method to the madness. They really think hard about what each kid brings to the community, stats are a bar but the least important IMO. [/quote]

I also believe your kid is a legacy and URM, correct?[/quote]
