[quote=Anonymous]I mean, think about the elite college admission culture seen right here on these boards. A lot of these kids have been identified as extremely intelligent from a young age and always had it in their head that they'd go somewhere elite. A lot of them have been thinking about college since they were 10 (or younger). They might have private college counselors, have been taking extensive test prep classes, or had "internships" or fancy summer camps to attend since before they even entered high school. And then they get into a school that is known by practically everyone. Most of them aren't just some innocent and smart kids that applied to Harvard on a whim and were humbled to get in. Even if it wasn't to the absolute extreme, a majority of these kids have been groomed for this Harvard education. It's not surprising that they've become stuck-up and incredibly self-assured (even if they aren't aware of this).[/quote]
