[quote=Anonymous][quote].....we essentially have never had a family member rejected from Princeton in recent history. Even those with admittedly unexceptional academic profiles.[/quote] ..... [quote]Anyway I am rambling too much. I am just freaking out a bit. I just want to maintain our family peace and I also want him to get into a good college and reach his potential.[/quote] I would argue that he is LESS likely to achieve his potential if he knows he got into Princeton on legacy status like Cousin Jokel over there who had mediocre grades. You are telling him he is not worth anything on his own, because his family will buy his way in. I can't think of a less motivating message to send a child on his way to manhood. [/quote]
