[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The reality are all the Ivy's ae much easier once you get there than even flagship state schools.

Less classes, less expectation, no real grading, lots of fluff classes.

Ivy students take 10 less classes than students are flagship universities add in some APs and they are taking 15 less classes. [/quote]

This is actually not true at all. While some ivies are known for grade inflation, others are very rigorous from a grading perspective. At Dartmouth, for example, only 4 to 8 students per year graduate with a 4.0.[/quote]

This just isn't true.  Why do you make things up?  Dartmouth had 26 valedictorians last year (all 4.0). A total of 50 kids had a 3.99 or above (5% of the graduating class). The prior year was similar.  it's all published by the college.

At Brown, everyone has a 4.0. It is a participation trophy.[/quote]

Mine doesn't and [b]was a Val at a top school.[/b] You really don't need to speak on things you don't know about. Have an opinion, but these types of comments are ridiculous and unhelpful to people.[/quote]
There is no such thing as a Val at a top school. Sorry your public did not compare your kid for the “rigor” of Brown.[/quote]
