I enjoyed this podcast immensely and wish each university had its own season, and that there were more colleges explored! As a Jewish Ivy League grad, a lot of this information surprised me (no spoilers) but I recommend this series heartily to anyone with even a passing interest in contemporary college admissions. You won’t believe what it used to be like. Can’t get over the DartMOUTH application story—too funny.

This was so well done: the production, investigative journalism, the voice work, music, everything. I couldn’t recommend it enough!
Apple Podcasts5McAwesomeSAHMUnited States2 years ago - Amazing lens through which to dissect the Ivy League
I learned so much by listening to Gatecrashers and was also entertained. The podcast feels especially insightful and poignant given current world events. The only thing I disagreed with as a fellow Yalie was Mark’s statement that Harvard is the most prestigious US university. 🙄
Apple Podcasts5darcyedenUnited States2 years ago - Must listen!
Thank you Mark and Tablet for creating a compassionate and compelling narrative around this topic! Very timely and the commercials are not too annoying. I binged all the episodes on a Saturday and was sad it was over!
