[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]So let me get this straight , the kids at top privates are there primarily because mom and dad can pony up, not because they are particularly more intelligent than anyone else? [/quote] You do realize more than half who are there get some financial aid at these top privates? And there are many more wealthy people who would be happy to pay far more than 80k per year for these places? The elite schools are all need blind, and being full pay is not rare, so it is not a boost in admissions. There is no shortage of naturally high-scoring top1-2% academic kids in the country who are kind and creative and all the rest: in fact there are far far too many that would excel at these schools but there are not enough spots. Stop blaming people who hve more money than you do, or have saved more, and are happy to spend it on college if their kids get into a top one[/quote]
