Got pics, GGF was definitely there and looking mighty 
but in black and white.
No women or minorities nowhere. Maybe serving lunch.
“While your great-grandparent's connection does not qualify for official legacy status in the admissions office, your family's history with the school can still be mentioned in the application's "additional information" section to show family affinity, though it carries limited weight.”

Maybe do a Fresh Prince of BelAir angle where great grandpa was 
but the rest is decidedly not?
Tale of Two Cities?
Titanic scenario without the death scenes?

No DEI. No trans. Attractive Caucasian child.
Good grades are meaningless because everybody with a pulse has a 4.0 min now. Overachievers and Asians apparently can juice up their GPA to 4.5 by suffering through AP & college classes in advance, but schools don’t really care about that shyt as long as you are taking the relatively “hard” classes for your high school.

U of Penn lets you use a grandparent as a legacy 
Not doing Philly or any urban center schools.

I'm suprised AP hasn't become a liability. Colleges get an extra semester of cash when there's no AP credits.

Princeton, along with most universities, don't exist to provide an education. Universites are greedy, money-grubbing organizations.
If a Princeton legacy provides enough cash to the university, mentioning that legacy will matter... a lot.

Asians have learned the hard way to never get uppity and try to impress anyone by taking community college classes for extra credit while in high school. Turns out those cc grades get reported and included in the real college GPA, fuqing the perfectionist students over with shameful B’s on their record. Then they compete to get into med school & law school with Bs on their transcript from some Jumanji cc nutjob teacher who didn’t like them.
They still do APs because no grade gets attached & they can skip over some core requirements to take harder classes in college to be more impressive to med/ law school.

Asians, as in Chinese, are persona non grata at today's DEI medicals schools.
