[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I had a colleague who was smart, successful and a lot of fun. She and husband went to Harvard and other Ivy’s for post graduate degrees. Her parents went to Harvard too. Literally could not imagine her children going anywhere else for undergrad — while she never criticized another school but nothing else was going acceptable for her family or her kids. She did express concern that the private school in DC her children attended was not as strong as NYC, where she grew up. And yes her kids got in. [/quote] lol in what kind of world do these people live? most people can only dream of attending an ivy and there are people who think that only HYPS or only Harvard is good enough? Didn't go to an ivy so it seems crazy to me. Agree with above, the obsession with HYPS is for prestige reasons. The opportunities there and in other ivies will be similar. [/quote]
