[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Will soccer help you get into law school[/quote] :lol: All joking aside, if soccer helps a kid get into an Ivy for college, then it will also have indirectly helped a kid get into a grad school, assuming the kid is an above average student in undergrad. Not to be captain obvious, but it's much easier to get into a top 20 grad school if you had a 3.7 at an Ivy, than a 3.7 at Penn State, for example.[/quote] Somewhat true but nobody who makes hiring or admissions decisions trusts ivy gpas anymore. 3.7 is average or slightly below average at a lot of top schools, and believe me, it is not because everybody is performing so brilliantly. I would take a higher-level athlete with a comparable GPA in a real major at a good state school. Especially if the sport demanded more time, like basketball. And I would definitely prefer to hire a state school division I athlete with a 3.5 over a grind with an average gpa at an ivy. [/quote]
