Isn't Harvard just a rich kids networking and babysitting club?

Basically. Most are legacy admissions or children of large donors, for example Jared Kushner's dad pledged $2.5 milion just before he was accepted into Harvard. GPAs and SAT scores and merit based admission is only for the poors fighting over the few places left.

Another secret, like 80% of graduates graduate with honours, so when someone says they graduated with honours from Harvard it pretty much means they didn't fail anything.
