[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Having high stats and being a gifted athlete is the secret sauce. [/quote]

Well a gifted something.  If not a recruited athlete, these kids are exceptional musical talents, or writing, or stem, etc.   It's an intimidating group.[/quote]

Yes.  Legacy or URM too.  [/quote]

Don't know about legacy status but the urm's are as intimidating talent wise as all the rest.[/quote]

Is the C for Cornell?[/quote]

Usually, the C is for the University of Chicago. HYPSCC would include Columbia.[/quote]

The more common acronym is HYPSM (MIT).[/quote]

The posters who try to sneak their school in with HYPSM are funny. [/quote]

Or sneak YP and M in with Harvard and Stanford with how things have been over the last 30 years. US News is keeping those other letters in play.
HS is where you want to go for undergrad, business school, med school, ed school, law school (Y is the best, don't worry DCUM lawyers), and pretty much any PhD program these days. [/quote]
