[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]You don't actually *have* to go for TT, in fact there are lots of reasons to think that unless your kid is an absolute academic rock star their college prospects might even be better at a 2T where they could distinguish themselves a bit more. Lots of people do the whole Gaston "that makes her the best, and don't I deserve the best?" thing with schools and don't necessarily stop to consider whether it's actually a good match. Also very importantly it'll give them the time to pursue extracurriculars at a high level, which is not only a resume booster but also lets them have a little more balance in their lives (at least if they have some extracurriculars they enjoy).[/quote] I realize that, but what I've got is a very academically inclined kid who also happens to do a huge amount of ECs in the arts. TBH, she just wants to go to Stuy for science, and will probably do well there, but we'd be sad to see her let go of all the non-academic stuff she's been pouring her heart into, which is the likely outcome.[/quote]
