> Think of how transformative that Yale slot could’ve been to someone not standing on a multi-billion dollar pile. Statistically speaking, isn't it likely that someone that gets into Yale also gets into another elite school? Not defending it but most people "close" to getting into one (waitlisted, etc) end up getting into another. It's only "transformative" for someone that's not even close to getting in (like myself), but even that's hazy.
