[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]As others have said, it has become so competitive now, that to get into a top 10 school, you have to have high level executive functioning and by nature be an overachiever. Rankings are not everything. Plenty of great schools outside the top 10 or 15 where you can get a great education and also have a good time. [/quote] The admits I see heading to T10 type schools are most academically intense kids in the graduating class. Socializing seems to be a lower priority for the most part. So this is naturally going to be reflected in the atmosphere at these colleges. If this is not your comfort zone that is ok......college is not necessarily where you want to seek your comfort zone. But don't be surprised that this is the type of person common at a T10 school. If it is really intolerable....look elsewhere for a better fit.[/quote]
