[quote=Anonymous]To the person who asked about what "quality schools", take a look at books like Princeton Review's 382 best colleges (or Fiske), just for starters. Those types of books have already eliminated more than 90% of America's 4 year colleges. I am not saying they have some magic formula, but the point is they use systematic processes to whittle down the pack, after which families need to do due diligence (by reading on-line, visiting schools, talking to current and past students, knowing your child). I think the biggest hurdle for kids and parents in this area is letting go of the Ivy/top 20 mindset and deciding that quality of life and fit just might trump "winning."[/quote]
