[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Easy. The kid who has two H alumni parents and is also an athlete/URM gets the spot for H![/quote]

Or what typically happens is that the spot (singular) goes to an unconnected URM and the Harvard legacies go 0/20.  Its wild at the Big3 schools.

It's just crazy that you have this many Ivy grads who are outlier successes stories for their universities (CEOs, managing partners at their law firms, people with national prominence in their fields, etc) and none of their (very bright) kids will get into their parent's alma mater. [/quote]

Unconnected teen at a Big 3? :roll: The "minority"" kids are all rich white fake Hispanics and the light-skinned Black kids have multi-millionaire parents in the highest rungs of US academia, political, legal and business power.[/quote]

Hang in there  PP, once you get out of the DC Bubble and into a University with a National and world wide applicant base, you'll see plenty of really bright, genuinely talented young people who are 1st generation college [/quote]
