[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Heard that 26 out of a senior class of 74 were accepted at an Ivy this year (was also told this was an unusually strong group).[/quote] What you should also have heard was that MOST of the admitees are "legacies".......(to be fair. however, not ALL are legacies but a large proportion are...)[/quote] That is wildly inaccurate. The vast majority of these kids were admitted to Ivies at which they are NOT legacies. (And stories like the guy who got in early to his "legacy" Ivy and then got in regular admission to all the other Ivies AND won a Morehead are true also, and negate the idea that anyone with an Ivy parent "doesn't count."). It's amazing how nobody can ever just say "wow, good year" and move on.[/quote]
