[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I know a bunch of these schools (they're not hard to figure out if you have a senior with friends at DMV schools and/or the public Instagram pages) and the valedictorians/Salutatorians who are going to Stanford or Harvard or Princeton are pretty much all legacy. Not surprising. 1)smart begets smart. 2)even valedictorians at top DMV schools (a crazy impressive feat) need an additional hook to get into HYPS. The admissions peak for academic, unhooked kids in the DMV is often the lesser Ivies, other top 20s. [/quote] I know one of the valedictorians also got into multiple other impressive schools (where they were not a legacy). Could be true of the others too.[/quote]
