[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I'll bite, HYP undergrad here and T10 law school. Most of them got in via some sort of undeserving hook - legacy, prep school connections, or athlete in some random sport that only prep schools do. They weren't smart and did terribly on the LSAT (or MCAT), but were told they were spectacular by parents their whole lives and couldn't give up the dream of being a lawyer or doctor. Went to whatever shitty school let them in. These were the same kids with mediocre SAT scores but the hook to get in. It's somewhat shocking how many are like this. It's why I say you can tell who the deserving Ivy undergrads are in one second - double Ivy or the equivalent or they shouldn't have been there in the first place.[/quote] And one follow up for the people saying they went to wherever gave them a scholarship - with a stellar LSAT, every T10 will give you one. It's not that hard to avoid going into debt for law school or med school.[/quote]
