[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Duke likes legacies. From our public HS to friends across the country, the only ones who got in had a parent that attended.[/quote] Yup, I know of two legacy donor families whose kids got in this round. Both mediocre students who went test optional. I know many many more qualified but less connected kids who did not get in. [/quote] To be fair every top school does that. Harvard was flamed for having 43% of its white admits be legacies, athletes, or children of donors. Harvard passes on many more qualified applicants for these ones, but just like with Duke, you still have to try your hand at getting in[/quote]
