[quote=Anonymous]My sense is that if you are in the top half of your class at Sidwell, it is fine to give Ivies a shot. All of those kids are smart and capable, but they could have different levels of appeal to the Ivies. Some more active in school, some more athletic, some with better grades who are not involved. I think the Ivies know that kids from these schools are very prepared, and they look to see who will fit best into the community. Legacy definitely matters. It can definitely launch a B+ student in to a category usually reserved for A- kids. There is no denying it helps, but it won't help a solid B student transform into an A student.[/quote]
