[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]All I know if my experience. 2 Harvard grads kid's applied to Harvard in recent years and both were wait listed. The students went on to very good schools (not ivy), so I think their stats were good. All the kids I know that gained acceptance to an ivy had a athletic hook.[/quote] I don't think anybody would argue that being a recruited athlete gives you a much bigger boost than being a legacy. Before some parent of an athlete freaks out, this is not to say that an athlete can't have perfect test scores, a 4.0 average and the kind of EC accomplishments that non-hooked students need, like Intel Semifinalist status, etc. [/quote]
