[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We have four kids who attend or did: Duke, Cornell, and UChicago (our alma mater). We didn't do anything particularly special. Just said we expected them to do well in school with their grades and always had them in a variety of activities.[/quote] ^ I should have mentioned we pay full freight. Very little merit and no financial aid. That's an important part of it, I'm sure.[/quote] I think up until 2 years ago, your outcome was not unexpected for those schools. Cornell's size and various colleges, I think is still doable. UChicago as a smart legacy with a great essays sure but I hear otherwise it's been really tough unless they went early round last few years. Not sure about Duke. Kids with these stats got deferred into regular round last few years. Everyone is so busy packaging the kids, the minimums are raising. These poor kids.[/quote]
