[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Frankly, I would not automatically be impressed with ANY of these colleges. It all depends on HOW they got in![/quote]

and WHAT they are studying [/quote]

To an extent. Pretty much any field (with possibly some exceptions) can be impressive if that's what they are interested and good in[/quote]

Pretty much any college is impressive then
[/quote]

You missed the part where I said it all depends on HOW the student got in[/quote]

HOW they got in? We need to stop kidding ourselves about junk like this!

Outside of literally a few kids of [i]massive[/i] donors, all kids at these colleges have to be impressive in multiple ways (legacy kids, recruited athletes, and all sexes and races included). You'll never truly know the "how." For example, I went to high school with a relative of a pro sports team owner. She was supremely qualified as a student, leader, and major EC award winner but I'm sure many at her top college made assumptions based on who in her family had gone there and their known history of generocity.
