[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Isn’t it like 80-20% Princeton for cross-admits? [/quote]

The last time i heard of Princeton in the news was when brook shield published her Princeton transcript. That incident caused a scandal because people realized Princeton is a micky mouse University with basket weaving courses. It’s easy to graduate from P with a high GPA. This goes a long way in explaining its popularity. [/quote]

This shows how little you know, because applications to Princeton are affected by its reputation among the Ivies for grade deflation.  And yet it retains its #1 ranking on US News and has a 4.0% admission rate.  Sorry if you/your kid was in the 96.0% rejected. [/quote]

Um... Princeton wasn’t on anyone’s mind in my family. One of the celebrity’s kids from my kid’s HS got in. It’s kind of like Oxford-trained Amal Clooney marrying Clooney for $$$$$ and fame. [/quote]

Well if the rest of your fam has a mind like yours, good thing no one was interested in princeton.  An annectdotal illogical argument like that is not a good indicator of what princeton is likely looking for.[/quote]
