[quote=Anonymous]Those homework loads are insane. This is why the Harvard admissions office complains about getting burned-out over-achievers who crash as freshmen. Homework does not equal rigor. It just equals homework (and kids who never get to be kids). Well, I suppose it does accustom them early to being miserable.... They can go straight from college to law school to working 80 hour weeks at Big Law, and they can have kids who will go to Big 3 schools and do four hours of homework a night and go on to college and law school and.... Kind of makes you wonder just what it is we thik counts as "success." [/quote]
