<p>forgive me for my naivity, but isn't the admissions process supposed to be need-blind. Just because being relatively poor doesn't work against doesn't mean you should expect it to work for you. I can't get over your hypocrisy. Stop trying to play the race card, the poverty card and whatever other cards you're trying to play. To borrow a line from gavorche, it is very unbecoming of you. Why do you insist on being judged favorably because other minorites are supposedly inferior. That isn't the kind of attitude Harvard wants. </p>
<p>As a side note, are you telling me that the ivywanabechick or whatsherface is an actual person. She epitomizes all that is wrong with Ivy admissions. I hope she's playign a character, for all our sakes.</p>
