[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I am from Boston, and once I worked at an old establishment library. One recent student had graduated from Harvard and seemed very good and charismatic. The other person who was at the time an undergraduate seemed liked a connected social butterfly, and I never heard her make an intellectual statement of any kind, and wondered how she could study there yet show no intellectual curiosity. Strange. I think the social connections, wherever they were, enabled her admission. NOt impressed at what I saw. [/quote] Not unusual for people to get into Harvard, but rejected from every other Ivy. Not a huge number, but enough to see the pattern. If the process were fair or close to fair, getting into Harvard should usually mean getting into other places. But it's not. [/quote]
