[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Ok. My DD didn’t apply. But she knows of a classmate who isn’t too sharp. But Daddy went to law school there and likely has made generous donations. I guess this helped to get this young lady admitted? We just couldn’t believe she got in. Not what we think of as Duke material. [/quote] I know several big donor kids who go there/went there. Duke is still one of the schools where you can be fairly sure of getting a kid in with enough $ and board member phone calls. I heard this from a board member who was pleased about it. [/quote] I can’t believe a school takes lower score legacies over kids who score 1590 on the SAT. But I am not a legacy nor am I into that whole game. :roll: [/quote] It’s sad but it happens at all the top schools. That’s why Asians are currently taking Ivy/Stanford/Duke to court for discriminatory practices[/quote]
