[quote=Anonymous]I think these kids are actually passionate about curating activities that will get them into selective colleges. How many of them continue with their passion once they get in? I have a DD at an Ivy who was over the top “passionate” about her sport. Once at the Ivy, the sport became an activity she enjoyed with her friends. Her “passion” now seems to be her GPA and getting a good job in finance, despite my efforts to convince her that a life in finance might not be what it seems. [/quote]
