[quote=Anonymous]I'd also guess that the % of children from Ivy-educated parents is higher in private school than in public school. However, there are also many kids at public schools with Ivy-educated parents. There was a long thread about this in one of the other education forums a few months ago, with many Ivy-educated parents talking about how they send children to local public schools. Indeed, on a raw numbers basis, I'd even bet there are [i]more[/i] legacy children in local public schools than in local privates. So when we evaluate the impact of legacy status on college admissions among private and public students, we need to acknowledge that some of the public school students admitted to top colleges are likely getting a legacy bump as well.[/quote]
