In this episode, we perform a case study analysis on acceptance and matriculation data from one of the top private high schools in the U.S. and a well-known Ivy League “feeder school.” We cover the following:

  • Most Recent Year and 5-Year Ivy League Matriculations
  • Ivy League Acceptance Data for “Unhooked” Students (i.e. non-legacy/donor, recruited athletes, etc)
  • Hooked vs. Unhooked Student Acceptance Rates & GPAs

Drawing upon this data, we argue that alluring college track records at many top US high schools—particularly top private high schools—often derive not from the school’s “name brand” but rather from a disproportionate number of students with other well-established admissions advantages.
Finally, we discuss the highly limited applicability of overall high school track records to individual cases—particularly to “unhooked” and overrepresented minority students (e.g. Asian/Indian)—and the harmful effects of relying on school track records or any type of peer comparisons in the admissions process.
——
“The Game” is hosted by Sam Hassell and brought to you by Great Minds Advising.
Great Minds Advising’s unique, hands-on mentorship program and its deep strategic insight into the application review process have earned the company a nation-leading track record of excellence, with 100% of its students gaining admission to top-choice schools in the 2023–24 application cycle.

Its students have recently gained admission to Princeton, Columbia, Yale, Stanford, Penn, Brown, Duke, Dartmouth, Cornell, Vanderbilt, WashU, and UC-Berkeley (among many others) and are admitted to the Ivy League at a rate 14x the national average (90% when applying early).
