[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]if you're high up at Blackrock and your kid wants to work in finance, believe me, schools will be just fine about it.[/quote] Agree. Usually advantageous to list careers, esp high-profile ones. On the other hand, if you work in CS/IT or are a doctor and your kid lists the EXACT same thing in his/her career goals (CS/IT or pre-med), then makes the kid seem a bit un-original and boring. And that's the very 1st impression remember. Works the same for law most likely. So I'd omit parents occupation there or switch kids career goals to NIH researcher or something from doctor...[/quote]
