[quote=Anonymous]It is more than just college admissions, though. If your kid aims for Law, Finance, IB, or Consulting, the game is just beginning. They will need to play the game, sustain the grades, cherry-pick classes, etc etc for the next 8 years. They need to get into the right college and in college sustain a 3.8 GPA, so they will be surveying upperclassmen, reviewing rate my prof, etc to ensure they have the GPA to enter certain opportunities. If you are chasing prestige, it's more than just college admissions, you need to prepare yourself for the long game, and it's best to start coaching your kid now so they have the right perspective about things. If on the other hand, your kid just wants a regular ole engineering or business or liberal arts degree, that can be had at many T50-100 schools, and some of them are very good and rising. [/quote]
