[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Over the years of reading DCUM, there have been times/responses/posters who come off as strategically trying to steer parents away from certain schools. Which is why I stopped asking for advice/giving stats or information about my DC in this sub-forum. I could post that they are 5.0, #1 rank, four varsity athlete, STEM national award winner, 1600 SAT, debate team captain, student class president and someone will post that they have the admission stats for T100-T200 school. [/quote] Oh, yes. I am the poster above your post, and I forgot to add those. The parents overtly trying to scare people away from the schools their kids are applying for! I'll admit it was tempting, and that I was honest about the dorm quality at kid's school when younger sib was applying, but mostly just stayed silent. But, there are definitely times when I see threads deliberately dinging top schools where I am pretty suspicious of the poster's intent![/quote]
