[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]In many cases, parents have bulldozed the "achievements" of the successful applicants to the Ivies. There are very few kids who actually start their own non-profits/businesses on their own, like that.[/quote] And those nonprofits are so frequently not about helping out -- there are plenty of organizations where a compassionate teenager could volunteer if they really wanted to be useful. A couple of years doing something that is probably being done elsewhere and that ends when you leave for college? That was about ego, not contribution.[/quote]
