[quote=Anonymous] OP, my kids are still in high school, but here's my experience. Even in my decent but not stellar grad school, I thought that most of my peers weren't that bright when it came to deductive reasoning. However, some of them were much better worker bees! The quality of grad school matters. At the undergrad level, wherever you go, the work might not be that interesting. I advise her to start planning to attend a top graduate school or equivalent. In undergrad, she has to learn to play the game - get the best gpa, talk to professors, figure out what she wants to specialize in, do some research or get an internship, if applicable. Get a perfect score on her GRE or LSAT or whatever. Then she will be poised to go to the most intellectual graduate environment, with the most forward-thinking peers and professors. [/quote]
