[quote=Anonymous]My kid has a similar academic profile and also doesn’t want Ivies, or any other schools under 20,000 students. In other words she’s just like the kids who apply to Ivies but don’t want LACs, it’s just that she has a different idea of what the right size is. My initial reaction was “what?! How could you not want this?” so I took her to tour a couple private T20s. You could see her bridle at the marketing pitch. Too small, too intense, too elitist. Not for her. She relaxes and shows interest when we visit the big flagships. She’s been at a small, exclusive high school for 4 years, and though she’s done well, she’s found many aspects of the experience limiting and frustrating. So I have to trust her when she says she’s ready to move on to something bigger. [/quote]
