[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][b]This is a horrible example of vague posting. [/b]My initial response is "so?" Next question is "Do they not want Ivies but they want Williams/Pomona/Stanford/MIT/etc." or "Do they want to go to state U for free and be a superstar?" - though guess what - no guarantee they will be a superstar and being average at state U is a lot worse than being average at an Ivy so there will be a lot more pressure to succeed. But frankly I don't think I generally care so I will move on. Best of luck.[/quote] Very true. My son turned down some higher-ranked schools for one which specialized in his desired major. He loves his school, and it was the right choice for him. If your kid has actually done their research, visited if possible and really thought about it, then you need to respect their choice. If it's just a vague "I'm a rebel and will go against my parent's wish" sort of thing, then your kid is stupid. [/quote]
