I would imagine that more of those that attended Harvard, Stanford, or Wharton started on 3rd base. They come from WEALTH.

Harvard, Stanford, or Wharton also find ways to get those that come from wealth or influence accepted. How else do you explain a slacker like Al Gore getting into Harvard? Lots of factors.

Exactly. It’s not the education, it’s the connections.

Wealth or influence plays a much larger role in Harvard College admissions than in Harvard Business School admissions, or at least that used to be the case.
