[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Why do so many of you think a couple of kids getting into Yale has anything to do with your kids? [b]Are your kids #1 in their class, volunteer at NIH, cello virtuosos and manage food banks?[/b] If not, the fact that your kid goes to the same school as that kid isn't going to get your kid into Yale. There are schools where 10+ kids get into Ivy schools and the reputation of the school bumps them up, none of them are DCPS or charter schools. Most are New England boarding schools. Every year this same thread pops up, and every year you all make fools of yourselves.[/quote] This is not either of the kids I know of who got into Yale from public schools. They are both what you would call “average excellent.” Same with the kid I know who got into Brown. And the one I know who got into Columbia. [/quote]
