[quote=Anonymous]At both schools - and all other "top" privates (and W public HSs or VA equivalent top public HSs) in metro DC, the "top" college acceptances are driven mostly by hooks (legacy donor, VIP, special art/music talent, fake non-profit run by student, college recruit for Lacrosse, etc.) not by the academics. Unhooked students with higher GPAs often are still at a disadvantage to a legacy child of a wealthy donor to the top college. [/quote]
