And again, there was no documentation for this. Do you have something to back up these statements? That's all what was being asked for. I said from the beginning, it "very well might be true", or not, as there was no source that can say this was true or false.
And let's not forget Fred's source:
"Mr. Friedfeld also said it is rare for a student to get into all eight Ivy League schools and that he only knew one other person who had achieved this, a family friend* AcceptU advises students against applying to all eight Ivy League schools, rather recommending students apply to a mix of top schools as well as safety or match schools – schools a student is likely to be accepted to."

"Mr Friedfeld" said it was rare, not non existent. In fact he claims "to have known someone" who has done it. Okay, so that's about as good a source as the "William Floyd Guidance Counselor", but just the same, it's more to the contrary, than you had provided to prove it.

When in doubt, it's better to say it's "rare", rather than say it's "the first", as we really don't know, and no where is that stated.

And yes, let's not forget that applying to all of them is rare in and of itself, if it was common for people to do that, we may see it more often.
