[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Yall this is making me cringe. My kids are so average - maybe nationally above average but below average for this site, lol. My sophomore got like a 1060 on the PSAT last year and I still [b]expect [/b]them to [b]go to a great college and have a wonderful life[/b]. My husband and I went to “fine” colleges yet we are securely UC so your kids will be completely fine I promise! [/quote]

It's not 90's anymore.  You and your UC husband should adjust expectation.  Would be good for your DC.

Also, take a statistic class?[/quote]

How incredibly rude. There are good colleges for everyone. Stop being a jerk. I used to be similarly snotty, honestly, but I have seen and worked with so many people who went to lower tier schools and many of them are very bright, doing great things. Just stop. [/quote]
It's not rude, it's cold hard reality.  In 90's we got Clinton, economy is booming for more than 20 years.  You didn't do well because you are capable.  You did well because it's the right time and you were really lucky to be at the right place.

What have we got today?  What's your prediction for our economy in the next 10 years?  [/quote]
Not any of the PPs but it’s cute that you think sending your kid to an Ivy is going to help. There’s the top 1% and then there is the rest of us.  The kids who will survive the incoming bloodbath will need to be adaptable, be ok with uncertainty, have social skills, etc.  And there is a difference between saying “the future looks bleak and I want my kid to stand a chance” vs being mean.
