Nepotism suggests that your mother/father are successful and one might argue that gave you an advantage in your pursuit to go to a target school which helped get the great job.

There's something going on AWP ain't including. I think the premise is that Op concedes something is in the background that doesn't make nepotism a totally invalid argument. Just that it's not fair that nepotism aside, Op is having a hard time being accepted for other merits.
