[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Plenty of people apply to the Ivies and then keep quiet about it. [/quote] Maybe. But I think the trend is the other way. Smart kids aren't bothering with Harvard, Yale, and Princeton. That's for the try-hards and the status-obsessed. I think the real competition is a little further down the list - Northwestern, Vanderbilt, Rice, Berkeley, Duke, Notre Dame, Michigan. Kids aren't idiots. They can see what's what. If you're not hooked, it's pointless to apply to Harvard or Yale. Whereas a little further down the list, it seems like you can get in on merit and grit and talent and hard work. So that's what the smart kids are gunning for. It feels more controllable. [/quote] You are completely clueless. Smart kids apply to both sets of schools. [/quote]
