[quote=Anonymous]I’m afraid my kid will have regrets about not gunning harder when they see the opportunities kids at Ivy/Ivy+ schools have. That being said, my kid made it clear in high school that sleep, friends and balance were important to them. They did not “gun” for the best grades or shotgun the T-25 schools. They took a step back from a major EC where they had a track record of success to try something new and completely different when they were in 11th grade. They did not apply to any Ivies or T-10’s. I worried all the time that they weren’t taking college admissions seriously enough but now I’m glad they kept it in perspective. Attending a T20-T30. [/quote]
