[quote=Anonymous]I have a senior at a Big3 and there are a lot of quiet hooks--I.e. parents calling in favors with friends or former college roommates who are now college admissions officers, board members, etc at top universities. the ivies don't play this game but the colleges just below (those ranked say 25-50) definitely do. I would say at my child's class there have been roughly 10 kids who pulled in a "one off" hook to get into the top 25-50 school they're matriculating to. if not for their hook their matriculation would look very different. It's been fascinating to see. [/quote]
