[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]WASP grad and my kid didn’t get in despite having higher stats and better EC’s than me. No point in comparing though because the metrics have changed, times have changed and we’re two different people. [/quote] How did the kid compare to the modern-day SAT/GPA ranges? Obviously, the metrics from a few decades ago are irrelevant. [/quote] Above poster- kid was well within the WASP schools’ 50th percentile range for both SAT/GPA. Strong EC’s but not pointy or anything that truly stood out. Kid applied RD. CC warned kid it was a big reach and CC was right. Legacy alone isn’t enough. There has to be something more. Kid was waitlisted. No hard feelings. Loved my time there and am grateful for the experience. [/quote]
