[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I don't understand that College forum. Parents act like the Ivy acceptance rate is 0.00001% and that DC needs a Nobel Prize to be competitive. In fact, the Harvard acceptance rate is 5% (1 in 20 is getting in). Difficult, but hardly impossible.[/quote] not impossible, but pretty difficult. the problem is also complete lack of transparency, so you don't even know what you need to do - apart from having 4.0, 10+ APs, 99% SAT - to get in. and if you try to help your kid, it looks manufactured, but if you don't, they won't know how to package themselves as having "leadership" and "impact".[/quote]
