[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]No legacies from Langley? as if 98% of the McLean parents are college graduates? Right.[/quote]

Majority of kids got into Ivy league schools from Langley High are Asians.  These kids are not legacies at all.  They are the second-generation immigrants.  Of course, their parents are highly-educated professionals in IT or other areas.    [/quote]

It's entirely possible that at least some are legacies.  Plenty of Asian Americans [b]who attended college in the US in the late 80s and early 90s [/b]have college aged children now and they are all applying.[/quote]

Yes, these Asian Americans came to the US to attend graduate schools to get master's and PhDs.  Some of them went to Ivy league schools.  But their kids are not legacies.  Only an applicant is regarded as a legacy because a parent or other relative attended the same school [b]as an Undergraduate student[/b].  [/quote]

Don't think the kids getting into Ivy leagues from Langley HS are of your ethnicity.  [/quote]
