Not all movie stars are created equal. Some are tall. Some are short. Some spend their free time on philanthropy. Some spend their free time in jail. And some secretly gave children up for adoption. Wait; that's actually Tina Fey's character in "Admission" — not to be confused with the real Tina Fey, who (at the time of this posting) has not put any of her offspring up for adoption.

But since we're on the subject of this new comedy, in which Fey plays a Princeton admissions officer, we thought it high time to hit the books (well, the Internet) and find out which stars were at the head of their classes and which stars never matriculated. Yeah, we looked that word up.
