[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]If you haven't found a stretch school that you really love you haven't looked hard enough. Keep looking. [/quote]

Totally disagree. If all you care about is a stretch it probably means you are too focused on rankings. [/quote]

A lot of people who regret their college choice 29 years after the fact probably thought the same thing once[/quote]

Why would you regret passing up a school you didn't like as much?[/quote]

Some people change and grow after college.[/quote]

Well that's true for me - I might not pick the school I attended if I were doing it again (although it's a top 10 SLAC and a stretch for many students).  But that doesn't mean it wasn't the right choice at the time.  And some of the changes and growing were attributable to my college experience.  I think the outcome would have been less positive if I'd chosen the schools that appeal to me now (having visited about 25 colleges in the last few years with my kids).   But I have no regrets.[/quote]
