[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]If your kid is laid back, they will be laid back anywhere. If your kid is high stress, they will be high stress anywhere. It's not the college, it's the kid[/quote] I mostly agree with this. The one twist, I think, is who your kid ends up being close with - their closest friends. Peer influence is huge still in college. Even at pressure cooker schools, there are less stressed out, more balanced kids. And even at schools with a more laid-back reputation, there are stressed out gunners. Your kid will encounter a different mix/balance of personalities at different schools, so keep an open mind. It’s not all or nothing like some people are making it sound. [/quote]
