[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Yes, but mostly attributable to legacy /donor status in ED. A lot of admits that made you scratch your head.[/quote] This ^^ Most of the time somebody rises up to a stellar college acceptance despite never being on the same academic radar as the high achievers at school - it's a legacy/donor/VIP situation. There are also the strong URMs who get into top schools - and while they may not be in the tippy top of the class, they are still very solid students (and there are some legacy like that too). But the total head scratcher cases have always ended up being kids with a VIP parent + legacy other parent. [/quote]
