[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][b]People said this to my kid at his private HS level since he as a 'sibling legacy'.[/b] Yet my kid was also straight A student with an entrance exam (no prep in the 99.99%). I let him know he earned it on his own. The kids from his middle saying it were average grades at best and I know their test scores weren't great--according to their mothers.[/quote] I'm sure your kid could have gotten in on their own. However, I've worked at private schools and they have a completely separate pile in admissions for siblings and children of faculty. They absolutely have more likelihood of getting in. It's OK to know that. [/quote] But is it ok to say it to the kid? [/quote] DP. Um, yes? What on earth. [/quote]
