[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]All these folks sounding so indignant about how the family reacted would probably work the system if their kid were shut out. [/quote] Most parents would have accepted school advice not to have their kid apply to all Ivys and reach schools like Duke. Stupid and entitled doesn’t make it the school’s fault. And it sure as hell doesn’t amount to a federal civil rights case![/quote] +1 Seems like the parents were idiots to sign off on a slate of highly selective schools and then were shocked when their kid didn't get in. [/quote] [b]She applied on her own after a year and got in. Ooops! She clearly is Ivy material. She is now an Ivy graduate. [/quote][/b] Ivy admissions are a total crapshoot. It's entirely possible that a candidate who got rejected, could have been accepted if the exact same person who looked at their file, had looked at it a day earlier or later. [/quote]
