[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I mean, in all honesty, very few people set their sights on going to ... Boston College ... but it becomes an acceptable-ish fallback. If plan A fails, go to plan B, which is to transfer to an Ivy. The President went that route, albeit from a school that is even more of a safety.[/quote] I don't think most Type A parent looks at their brand new baby and dreams of Boston College, but I think MANY parents look at their high school junior, who they now understand is a person with strengths and weaknesses, and thinks that Boston College would be just fine. It's the difference between an ideal (the baby, who has yet to show you who they are) and the reality (which is that not every single kid is going to make the cut for an Ivy). [/quote]
