Does this junior get into Yale?

Applying to College
1

<p>There’s this one kid who’s applying to Yale next year because three or four of his relatives have attended there and one currently works at a professor there. Considering his stats, can he be accepted if he applies next year?</p>

<p>Stats are estimates</p>

<p>GPA Should be hovering a 2.9-3.1 considering what he’s said aloud - he’s said A LOT too. Includes a 70 in Chem and several Cs in a significant portion of his AP courses.
SAT: 1880
APs: Will take Chem, Lang and USH, I’d guess a 2-3 on all of them.
SAT II: unknown
Recs: I highly doubt they’ll be good considering the nuisance he is to his teachers.
ECs: All South Jersey as Violist
Tri-M
A few other scattered clubs.</p>

<p>Remember his extensive legacy… Does he have a shot?</p>

<p>He’s a Jewish American in case his ethnicity matters.</p>

<p>Not a chance.</p>

3

<p>Lol kidding?</p>

4

<p>Not unless his family donated a seven-figure sum to Yale. Special consideration only gets you so far.</p>

5

<p>If the OPs summary of the applicant is correct, virtually no chance.</p>

<p>This has to be a ■■■■■ lol. :&lt;/p>

<p>Well, you never know. Yale may feel a need to have a mediocre and arrogant, but, well connected, student. They have done it before. I don’t suppose this kid’s father is head of the CIA, is he?</p>

<p>Wait…</p>

<p>You’re not tricking us by giving us Dubya’s academic info, are you?</p>
