[quote=Anonymous]Be happy for your kid, please OP. We have friends who are HYP grads and were set on that for their kids. Like, scarily set on that since birth. Kid seems fantastic, great grades & test scores & sports etc. He didn't get into any Ivies, instead is at a top 20 LAC, and parents are visibly crushed whenever the issue comes up (ranting about unfairness etc.) I know this isn't quite the same as your dilemma, but honestly I lost so much respect for our friends in the way they got caught up in the nonsense. And I feel badly for the kids who get treated like somehow they let their parents down by not choosing (or getting accepted at) the braggiest school possible. [/quote]
