[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Mean to say that the odds for legacy admits are better than for the general pool -- but certainly not relatively easy.[/quote] [b]The hard thing about going up against legacy is also that many legacy kids are very smart.[/b] [/quote] Yes, this is something that graduates of fancy colleges like to believe.
