Summary of this post: everyone has their own opinion |
Harvard Amherst Cornell Kentucky |
Yeah, and not just that, editing an essay doesn’t mean you know all the intricacies of a kids application. I’m telling you, you folks are just obsessed. You really might wanna tone it down a notch. |
Agreed! |
It’s possible that you and your kid has a difference experience than every other kid. My kid read full applications. Yours didn’t. Who cares. |
Funny response, but seriously! Haverford, Amherst, Colby, Kenyon |
lol what?? |
Of course. |
It’s a troll poster. |
No one is going to Haverford, Colby or Kenyon over Brown or Cornell. These schools are not in the same league. The top SLACs are Williams/Amherst then Midd |
What a strange jump. Williams/Amherst aren't even the most competitive lacs to get into, and there's a lot of LACs to fill in before midd is even in conversation. |
I know a Colby student who chose it over Princeton! Not everyone makes the same decisions as you'd expect. There's a lot of resources for the students at HACK, so they often made it into much more well known schools, but they enjoy the low-key environment. |
Girl from DDs school chose Haverford over Cornell a few years ago. Humanities major and liked environment better. |
Top SLACs are Williams, Amherst, Swarthmore, Pomona |
NYC kids are typically very impressive and often with hooks too. I think there are 6-8 girls at The Spence School going to Harvard this year out of a class of 60! Half of Brearley’s class is going to Ivies + Stanford & MIT. Saint Ann’s, Dalton, Hunter, Stuyvesant all have excellent outcomes too. Nothing new there. These are their results (almost) every year. |
