[quote=Anonymous]There are lots of caveats here. I don't think a board chair gets an unqualified kid in. If the kid is qualified, it will be a factor, but remember, every year there are lots of preferential kids that don't get in, incluing siblings, teachers' kids, legacies etc. There are two other factors. Is the board chair recommending other kids too? The director of admissions can say things lke, ``it's not going to work out this year, but she should reapply in high school.'' Bottom line is that having a board chair rec helps but is not the lock the conspiracy theorists suggest.[/quote]
