[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]These kids get trotted out every year and it does get tiresome. To a thoughtful person, there are meaningful difference between the eight ivy league schools in terms of strength of discipline, location, size, culture, etc. To mindlessly spray out eight applications and presumably another eight to cover your bases with the Stanfords, MITs, and the like seems like a chase for glory, not a rationale process. This suspicion of course is only confirmed by the fact that these applicants and/or their parents contacted the media to share their joy with the world.[/quote] I agree with this, unfortunately. There's such a huge difference between these schools that there was clearly one motivation, and it had nothing to do with seeking the right fit for the student.[/quote]
