[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]People here kept screaming that B has some super amazing pedagogy and counseling that leads to outlier results. Someone did the research, yea it’s a bit weird, but you’re more upset that he or she showed the truth. Don’t post online publicly if you don’t want anonymous internet people to look at you. The school merely accepts richer and more athletic and more FGLI students than its competitors. Your kid probably doesn’t fall into any of those categories, so no HYP for you. Consider whether a shot at Cornell or UChiago (great outcomes that are above average, anyone saying otherwise needs Xanax) is worth 1mm in tuition. [/quote]

Honest question — did your daughter not get into B, or could you not afford it?  It's hard to tell.  Or she got in but you didn't find value in spending $1MM?[/quote]

Only have sons at TTs, so never applied. Some of their friends go. It’s delusional to think any college counselor or school admin has the Midas touch to get its graduates until HYP at these rates. It’s money and sports and FGLI almost every time. Princeton doesn’t want to take ten applicants from an expensive city school, they only do it because they have donors and coaches and diversity mandates to answer to. [/quote]

Equally ignorant and delusional, mean-spirited and stupid-minded to assume that money, sports (lol, nyc private athletes…), and fgli are the only people who get in. Shut up already. We’re sorry you’ve got mid kids… jfc[/quote]

Those are, by and large, the types who get in from TTs. You see, a Harvard admissions reader doesn’t want a ton of kids whose parents pay 70k+ and spent their lives in that environment. If you think they want HYP to be finishing schools, you are wrong. And no, they aren’t impressed by any one school like that. Keep on dreaming that Yale looks at B as some mega tier above Dalton and Trinity. They really don’t care like you do. [/quote]

1) you’re creepy. I beg you: Find something else to do with your time beyond stalking kids on insta.

2) I’m a trin/harvard grad with a sibling who is also a tt grad/hyp grad, a kid in a tt, two nieces and nephews in tt’s etc. I’m telling you you’re wrong. There are some nepos and fgli for sure (but athletes? Not really, maybe like 2 a year), but they are eminently qualified more often that not.

Your cynicism and, frankly, presumptive, borderline racism are boring. Now crawl back into your cave and go to sleep. [/quote]

your grandkids are going to be the Harvard Nepo kids of class of 2075![/quote]
