[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think most people want this for their kid, at least, most people posting to this forum, and probably most UMC people. But it’s not cool to say so. The only acceptable narrative here is along the lines of: “We didn’t care at all what college Larlo went to. We never pushed him to excel, didn’t set up test prep, didn’t hire those over priced college counselors. Larlo got in because he was so self motivated. All he wanted to do in his spare time since age 8 was math, computer coding, and playing the tuba. He ended up winning multiple national awards, but not because we pushed him, because he truly loved those things and insisted on spending every moment of free time doing them. We didn’t venture realize he applied to Harvard. He took care of everything on his own.” [/quote] That or "Larla is *flourishing* at a liberal arts college you've never heard of that's on the verge of closing."[/quote]
