[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I work in secondary education. I know a white girl who got into an Ivy for soccer the summer after 9th grade. She's no genius. I also have a black football player who has offers from a few Ivies and he's a nice kid, but a legit idiot.[/quote] Wait, how is this new info? To the OP, someone actually does get in. URM, athlete, legacy are hooks we would all LOVE to have. [/quote] I just wonder where a top Ivy can hide dummy athletes? I don't think any Ivies have remedial coursework like public Us offer. And a football player at an Ivy isn't leaving early to go pro, they have to hide these kids in classes for the full 4 years. And the 9th grader getting into an Ivy two years before coach or admissions sees her SAT? Explain THAT.[/quote] Not hard to hide. Find a few profs who like you in particular fields. [/quote]
