[quote=Anonymous]Every family has choice: community college, state schools, trade schools, religious school, very competitive schools and a multitude of options between. There are price points and tradeoffs. Choose what is right for your family. My kid would never want to study overseas full time. Had no interest in Canadian schools like McGill with hundreds of kids per class and no interest in any uk/Irish programs where kids commit right away to a particular major. But we have friends who go that route. The benefit of an American education is choice and ability for kids to shift areas of focus more easily. We did strategize for our oldest and their narrative was authentic and leveraged their academic strengths. We didnt see it as a rat race - bc we made the best choices for our child and didnt focus on others. Great college outcome and our kid worked super hard and learned the importance of focus and effort. [/quote]
