[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OMG just give it a rest. I interview in this area and all the kids from my list who have gotten in in the last few years are neither rich legacies nor athletes. Your kid is not likely to get in because statistics are not on your side and you’re trying to find some “excuse” ahead of time. Just relax, go read a book of something.[/quote]

Good to know. This is definitely not the case at our DC private. Genuine question for you as interviewer though: [b]How would you know if the kids you interview are legacies?[/b] Are the interview requests marked as such. [/quote]

I'd like to know this too. And even if you know whether they're legacies or not, how would you know how rich they are? I don't believe that you are interviewing in the DMV (meaning DC, Montgomery County, Northern VA) and have had several kids with no hooks (not URM, not athletes, not legacies, not from famous/influential families, not big donor, not first gen) get into Yale.[/quote]
