[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Imagine what it takes to get into Princeton as an unhooked student. Imagine what those kids are like. Then put all those kids together in one school. Let the horror movie begin.[/quote] And combine them with the hooked kids, especially the ones from wealthy backgrounds, who have jobs waiting, regardless of major or performance, and that’s where it gets interesting…[/quote] As someone who was the epitome of an "unhooked kid" and more than held their own, this made me laugh. At their best, schools like Princeton routinely narrow what you seem to think is some predetermined chasm, not magnify the gap. [/quote]
