[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP - are the high school students you know mostly white? Because one way of reading this post is that it reaffirms the recent Supreme Court decision - it’s become nearly impossible for white highly qualified high school students to get into Ivy League schools unless they are legacies or athletes. [/quote] I dunno. My white totally unhooked dd is at HYP and certainly she knows plenty of legacies but she also knows like plenty like her who are not. There is no formula folks, but certainly some regular kids get a little bit of fairy dust sprinkled in their app and get in. And none of us who were not in the adcom discussions know why.[/quote]
