[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][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] You’re a newbie with young kids. It is really hard to get into certain colleges today. I attended a T20 school and was accepted to a few others as well. No way would that happen to me today with the stats I had. [/quote] It's so hard to get in that 1 out of 20 applicants are doing it. (It's only hard for mediocre students.)[/quote] It’s the same top applicant who applied to 15+ top colleges who is getting in, then picking one. [/quote] +1 The lack of limit on how many schools you can apply to is feeding the problem. [/quote]
