[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]People act like it's "either - or". It's not. Most Ivy League folks I know are top SATs and excellent athletes. Some people just get an overabundance of talent. I don't think many people on this forum (or maybe it's just one person writing multiple posts) get it. [/quote] Right. It actually also responds to OP. If you want to know why private schools emphasize athletics, it's because that's what the best schools are looking for (well rounded kids who excel in a variety of ways), and that's the general recipe for success, however that is defined down the road.[/quote]
