[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]LOL, you think this is somehow unique to the Big 3?

Parents of PUBLIC SCHOOLS have their kids applying to the Ivies in droves too. [b] I've interviewed several each year for the past decade and only a small handful over this time seemed remotely qualified IMO.[/b]  I don't see you calling public school parents "prestige whores" though.[/quote]

Wow!  Your a$$ can speak so loudly!  If you are so f'ing sure only a small handful seemed remotely qualified, did you follow up on all those you interviewed and your alma mater admitted into freshman year?  How did they do in their studies?  Either the adcoms of your alma mater are f'ing fools or you are and my wager is on you.[/quote]

In 2018, 234 students at BCC, Blair, RM, Wootton, Whitman, WJ and Churchill applied to Brown.  223 to Columbia. 420 to Cornell. 132 to Dartmouth.  241 to Harvard.  262 to Princeton. 392 to Penn.  250 to Yale.  This is in the area of 30-50 kids per school.  Doesn't seem to me that this is private school thing.[/quote]
