[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]they're in a special admissions file marked "Snowflakes, Legacies and Donor Admits" :roll: [/quote] That makes no sense -- the volume of legacy applicants coming from public schools is higher, why single out private schools in this regard?[/quote] I've never seen hard data on this, but I would guess that the [b]percentage[/b]of legacy applicants from private schools is far higher than at public schools, even if the volume is lower.[/quote] Of course the percentage of legacy applicants from private schools is higher, but there are nine times as many public school students as private. So it's nonetheless fair to conclude that, in terms of absolute numbers, there are more legacy applicants from public schools.[/quote] That's like saying because there are more Mercedes in the state of Tennessee than in the city of Beverly Hills, that the state of Tennessee is richer than Beverly Hills.
