[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think there were also 2 at MIT. One of the Harvard was not legacy. I think all 4 Harvard were legacy, double legacy, or legacy/VIP University of Michigan 8 Tufts 7 Wash U 7 Brown 6 NYU 6 Duke 5 Cornell 4 Harvard 4 Macalaster 4 Tulane 4 University of Toronto 4 University of Wisconsin 4 Boston College 3 Georgetown 3 UPenn 3 University of Chicago 3 Wesleyan 3 Yale 3[/quote] 3/4 Harvard were significant legacy (both parents, multiple degrees, VIPs). 3/4 were also URM. These kids would have gone to Harvard from any high school they attended (DCPS, MCPS, Sidwell, etc). It was the same the prior year. The GDS Harvard admits were all the kids of legacy VIPs. GDS did not turn these kids into Harvard admits: they were handed Harvard admits when they admitted these kids. This is not to downplay these kids' accomplishments but rather to just paint a realistic picture. [/quote]
