[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]feel sorry for op: clueless. Boston, Ny/nj, bay area, dallas - all are crazy competitive. [/quote] Add LA and the Chicago burbs to the list. The point is it's very competitive from every major metropolitan area where there are highly educated professionals with kids. But those are also the places that have the peer groups, the schools, the resources, and general expectations that allow students to have successful college outcomes. It is incredibly difficult to raise a Princeton or MIT student in small town America. Those kids are unicorns. Generally, the resources, peers, and school quality aren't available in rural and small town America to support an ambitious or talented student. [/quote]
