[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]To be honest, I would be embarrassed if my kid had to take this route to get into a good college.

Plus, I would worry that he would have time and/or the capability to do well there (i.e., that he might eek through, but fail to actually gain a strong education).[/quote]

No you wouldn't. You'd be bragging to anyone and everyone. Green eyed monster.[/quote]

You so don't get people like me, and my circle. [/quote]

Well thank God for that, who has time for people like your circle of losers?[/quote]

+1.  That PP is an utter imbecile.  Only children with hyper aggressive and conniving parents consciously take up a sport at age 7 with the explicit goal of advantaging themselves in college admissions.  The vast majority have a love for the sport just like musicians have a love for their instrument.  If it can help is some small way with college admissions more power to them. By that point in their lives they've clearly demonstrated that they have the requisite tenacity, discipline and focus to achieve success in at least one thing in their lives.  [/quote]
