[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Was your niece a legacy?  She sounds very talented, but that sometimes can help as well.  Congratulations in any case.[/quote]No legacy, no money, no melanin.  Talent only.  It does help sometimes.[/quote]

A wonderful accomplishment.  Did she attend public or private school, and was she good at standardized tests?[/quote]I think we should give this thread back to the subject at hand, the importance of 9th grade for colleges.  However, thanks for your congrats and interest in my niece.[/quote]

My Latina/o DC, a straight-A student with excellent SAT IIs and APs scores (5 under their belt b/4 junior year), and many similar accomplishments and achievements will thank their lucky stars (and then some) if they are able to get into H/Y/P.  Therefore please try to be forgiving of PPs and understanding of our/their interest in your family's success.  Also, when you yourself offer us such a compelling example, it is only natural for posters to want to know how their less-than perfect students' grades might also get them into the Ivys.  [/quote]PP again.  You have the makings for a new thread!  Why don't you start one?  I know you'll get similar comments from posters who share your thoughts about less than perfect students getting into the Ivys.[/quote]
