[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Strongly disagree that there is a “vanishingly small chance” of admissions. Like it or not, legacy acceptance rates at Amherst and Williams remain about 30-40%, which is 3-4 times the general admission rate. So I don’t think OP’s question is hypothetical. Whether or not OP’s daughter should pursue ED very much depends on more personalized issues - whether she likes a small town setting, whether she sees herself fitting in with the social scene, whether she is OK with liberal arts focus and probably not being at the top of the class etc.[/quote] Friends, double legacy and huge donors, still committed to Williams had a recent high school graduate with excellent stats and superior ECs not gain admittance. I am talking 6-7 figure donor. So, no.[/quote] And you know exactly what the kid's stats were? I doubt the parents told you the truth about the kid's stats or their actual donations. [/quote]
