[quote=Anonymous]No I am not the person that compared the benefit of legacy preference. I think that college admissions officers have a difficult job. I think that a lot of students and their parents think that they are in the top 1/10 of the one percent but do not realize the amount of high school talent that is out there (as well as the amount of spots -- ten to twenty percent -- that are reserved for international students (which are full pay and frequently donate at a low level ($50K to $100K a year in addition to tuition and room and board). College admissions was much less competitive 35 years ago and peoples' (the parents) viewpoint/perception of the new level competiitveness in admissions has not changed. More top colleges need to open additional capacity for students (or open additional campuses either here or abroad) [/quote]
