<p>any of you legacies out there that did not get accepted into the school of your parent's/your own choice and were sort of shocked/mad? </p>
<p>post your stats/story</p>
<p>I'm a 5 generation legacy at Harvard. I didn't get in- but I'm not shocked or angry.</p>
<p>I would have loved to go to Harvard, but I understand why they couldn't admit me. My stats are respectable enough, but certainly not top of the heap.</p>
<p>For reference:</p>
<p>1450/780/770/700
23/260
Piano/Ice Hockey (nowhere near college level)/various other activities</p>
<p>Again, I'm not mad or surprised...just disappointed.</p>
<p>wow 5th generation...u should have been in for sure. Top 10% as well. What did your parents say?</p>
<p>Not a whole lot- they weren't set on my going there.</p>
<p>bush is "against legacy"
such a hypocrite
maybe thats y this year lots of legacies got rejected</p>
