[quote=Anonymous]PP who could have gone to Juilliard, here. I'm not going to go through my qualifications in detail, but I had significant childhood accomplishments. I had the choice between top-notch conservatories and universities and chose the university path. I was already good enough as a teenager to play professionally, and did. I've been able to continue to do so, and have during years when I've held jobs that haven't required a ton of hours. (Many major cities have multiple professional orchestras that are part-time, and there's always pick-up orchestra work too.) By the way, your sister that went to Juilliard pre-college did not "go to Juilliard". No one in the professional world countenances that phrasing for pre-college students. The standard for the pre-college program is nowhere near the standard for the conservatory, and anyone who says they "went to Juilliard" when they were just at the pre-college program is seriously misrepresenting themselves.[/quote]
