It's best not to judge at all and just celebrate these kids no matter what school they are from or where they wind up going. [/quote]

Kids make decisions about applications for all sorts of reasons.  I know several kids who got POSSE scholarships this year.  [b]Many posters here would look down on their school choices but they are getting full tuition, room and board paid for.[/b][/quote]

This sums it all up! It's about getting a "full-ride" or significant merit-based aid at a good school for most families. The actual ranking of a program is probably better than the overall school ranking anyway.

Programs like POSSE, Questbridge, etc. are just phenomenal. They create life long networks. If you wanna argue and whine about Ivy admissions, private school forum is best for you. Kids are turning down Ivies b/c they are getting better packages elsewhere(imagine that). Families are just more educated about the process. [/quote]
