[quote=Anonymous]Applying to colleges today is a lot different than when we applied. My DH and I both went to highly selective colleges on scholarships and the truth is, we think our kids have taken more difficult classes, and done better, than we did in high school, and they face a tougher application path. Let the Ivy League dream go unless it's truly something your child is passionate about and even then you need to work with them to not define themselves by that because in this day and age getting in is not a given, no matter how smart you are and how many extracurriculars you have.
