[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]For the love of God, the first child is not a disappointment. I know a younger sibling this happened to at an Ivy and the first child literally won a departmental award during the year prior to the second one applying. Like
 "best math student at the university" given by the math dept faculty.  Younger kid had a 4.0/1550.  Denied.

Sometimes it's just random and it sucks. [/quote]
<---I'm a different poster and this comment was directed at the jerk who said the first child must be a disappointment for the university to not admit the second[/quote]

So how else would you explain it? Be precise.[/quote]

Maybe read the actual response about the firstborn’s success. These things make zero sense a lot of the time and that is what frustrates people. The negative trolls try to assume there is something negative. There isn’t. Great kids get rejected all of the time. [/quote]

And zero chance these trolls attended or have a kid at any of these schools. They are bitter and it’s their way of pretending they have power.[/quote]

I'm not a troll and one of my kids is at a H/Y/P.  The other is not.  Presumably, op is talking about a lower Ivy since ED was available and there is a reasonable prospect of transferring.  Maybe Cornell or Columbia.[/quote]
