[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think op is really just asking if her smart but underachieving kid will have a peer group to motivate her when she winds up at a lower ranked school. The answer to that is yes, but none of us can predict when op’s daughter will gain motivation to succeed in school. Gifted is clearly a trigger for many here.[/quote] OP here. I probably shouldn't have used the word "gifted." That's what they call the kids at CTY, so I used it. If it has a specific meaning to some posters, I'm sorry if my use of the word confused you. I posted several times that I really wish to hear from parents of very smart kids who went to lower ranked colleges. How did these kids do? Did they flounder or excel? Or just chug along? [/quote]
