[quote=Anonymous] OP, You have communicated to your daughter a terrible attitude about school and college. You think being "smart" is all there is to it. No. Colleges couldn't care less about intelligence. They want to see what students do with the gifts they have. If your daughter doesn't have anything to show for her intelligence, she might has well not be intelligent at all, from a college admissions perspective. Now it's apparent you only answer to encouraging posts, but I hope you still read the tough love posts. There is no way your daughter is getting into the Ivy League, or any top college, unless you've been holding something back from this thread. Make your peace with that, and convince her to do her best at whatever college she ends up in. [/quote]
