[quote=Anonymous]I got into Yale and Univ of Penn in the late 1980s with a 1380 SAT and zero AP classes. (My school didn’t offer any.) I may well have been the first kid from my high school to ever apply to either. I couldn’t afford to go and had no one to advise me on financial aid, so I declined both and went to a state university instead. Last year, my oldest was one of many highly qualified students to be rejected from both of the Ivies I got into, and we had a good laugh about the lost legacy preference. She is now at a state school as well, but one with a much better reputation than the one I attended![/quote]
