[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I never pushed DC to do anything, but she had a real passion for getting into an Ivy. She's always chased "prestige," and lord I wish I know where she got it from. She's now at Yale and well...very very unhappy. Test optional 1380 SAT and 31 ACT. She's very creative, and I honestly see a future where she's in advertising, but she's too stuck in the MBB cycle to actually take up a passion. She hated her first semester academically and clawed to transfer. She stuck it out, but if I could go back, I really would've encouraged her to submit test scores and be at an appropriate fit.[/quote] OP here. Thanks for sharing about her experience. My DD is planning on applying test optional, too. She is not aiming as high though potentially test score mismatched as well. What is MBB?[/quote]
