[quote=Anonymous]No regret. In retrospect, we had the perfect strategy. We looked beyond college. The kid wants to work for big tech, one of the FANGs. He applied for those schools that could maximize his chance of getting into those big tech companies given his ability and budget constraint. Now he is happily working for one of the FANGs, the good one. We believe colleges are like hotels. In a vacation, say, you want to go to a place. Well, you won't tell friends that you want to visit a hotel or have a vacation in a hotel. Your destination is not a hotel even though you need to stay in a hotel during a trip. You want to have a good experience in a hotel. You meet people in any kinds of hotels. You do not want to have a bad experience. Still, they are hotels. They are not the purpose of your trip.
