[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP is obviously a trolling high school student.   If the way the post was written wasn't the tip off, the complete non-understanding of the difference between "your" and "you're" (or refusal to self edit that mistake)  should've been conclusive evidence that he's from[b] Generation text[/b].

Nah, if she was from Generation Text, it would have been "ur".  OP is probably either a legacy acceptance or an athletic acceptance.[/quote]

Actually the bar is really high for these two groups too. Which is maybe the big error in OP's premise: simply being an Ivy legacy is no longer a guarantee of admission to Mom/Dad's Ivy. The kids we know who we're athletic recruits to Ivies mostly came from TJ, the Blair magnet and a few from private Big 3s. Really!  I also know some legacies from area magnets, with 4.0 GPAs and high SATs, who were turned down by Mom/Dad's HYP because even as a legacy you still need the whole package including outstanding extra curriculars.[/quote]
