My brother and I are academically very similar. We both do full IB, have similar GPA, and around the same SAT scores coincidentally.

Yes I am aware of the 1/2 tuition as long as my brother attends the school.

I am just curious to know how much of an edge does legacy give a person when applying when you fall just about “average” in the pool of applicants. Can it be a determining factor for acceptance at GW?
