[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It's because the obsession with AAP is just nauseating. My kid was regular/non-GT (as it was called then), took IB in HS got into William & Mary. DC's long time friend was GT/TJHSST and is also going to W & M. Not sure what all the craziness is going to do in the long run when the kids end up in the same place anyway.[/quote] +1 GT friend never had a career outside of retail...on the at Nordstroms. This was after attending a great university. I was a straight A student, but not GT and I ended up with a graduate degree and a high-profile career. A lot of it is a bunch of shit and just for parental bragging rights. As the youngest of 4 kids--all into travel sports--my parents didn't lobby or push GT like other parents in our neighborhood.[/quote] I'm sorry. Who is bragging here? It's sure not your friend at the mall. [/quote]
