[quote=Anonymous]I knew before clicking on the thread that it was going to be the Bay Area. I do feel the DMV is intense about college but there are also a lot of very practical people here, even among the wealthy, who don't have any issue with state schools or think the rat race required to get into the tippy top schools just are not worth the effort. The combination of tech money and extremely intense immigrant family culture is out of control in the Bay Area. You've got one group who is extremely entitled and truly believe they are smarter than everyone else and they simply demand admission to top schools for their kids, and then you have another group who isn't entitled but is willing to do almost anything to outcompete other people academically in order to gain access to the same schools. And these two groups are in a fight to the death.[/quote]
