[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]If you look at the language on their website it is clear they are far more interested in disadvantaged smart kids and international students, and those of color in areas likely not near the dmv, so those on this site would likely know who are accepted are the few that are getting in due to large donations and long lines of legacy. [/quote] In my reading of the cases from the last few years at our Big 3: It is nearly all donations/legacy or some very special hooks. URM + Legacy will get you a very solid boost (more than in other top places, it seems). The lowest GPA Princeton accepted from our school last year was less than 3.6. This is after rejecting outstanding kids with even 3.98 and close to perfect SATs (all this from SCOIR). The whole thing is a joke. I just wish our kids did not have to put themselves through this heartless insanity.[/quote] Totally true. I think we are in the same Big 3 Private.[/quote]
