[quote=Anonymous]My dd graduated a few years ago from a Big 3. There were two senior boys who were double legacies at an HYP. Neither one wanted to go to that Ivy, but their parents insisted they apply EA. They did, and were the only ones who were accepted to that Ivy, though several others had applied as well. Neither went to that Ivy, and a lot of students felt their applications had kept classmates out of their first choice school. I also wonder how the Big3 felt about the lower yield that they seemed to have to that Ivy. I haven’t heard about widespread cheating, but I do think lots and lots of the kids get extra testing time that they don’t actually need.[/quote]
