[quote=Anonymous] This entire discussion is moot because the immense majority of students will not be admitted to any of these very selective institutions, OP. So spending one's time criticizing the people who attend smacks a lot of the green eyed monster. I'm sure if your kid applied and got in, you would not press them to turn down the offer. Personally I believe that like attracts like and your personality is large predetermined by genes. So it's not the institutions that turn you into an intellectual perfectionist, it's who you were from the start. And given my husband and I are research scientists, I can tell you that certain professions REQUIRE intellect and perfectionism. We're not going to cure cancer in any other way, OP. We're happy, though :-) [/quote]
