[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]All of the schools on op list have rigor and smart kids. I think the determining factor should be your child's personality, interests, and what makes them happy/thrive. Look lifestyle and social fit - it matters. My kid only applied to 1 school on the op list - all great schools but not great fit for my kid. My kid thought rice kids were odd, jhu too grindy, and cornell too isolated. They arent an athlete so was wary of slac where athletes often drive the social scene. Every kid is different. I have a smart, social kid at a 'preprofessional' school on OP list and they are working hard, learning a lot, having fun, and very happy! Preprofessional schools can also be collaborative. My kid has supportive study groups, upperclassmen mentors, active in clubs, good advisors, etc. Best thing is to visit and speak with upperclassmen about their real experience.(vs websites and generic tours).
