[quote=Anonymous]I see a ton of downward mobility in these posts (Almost all Ivies/Duke/Stanford do not have Ivy kids or have Cornell kids at most). I think this is 3 fold from observing the kids at our private school: 1)Kids who grow up around money/success do not feel the pressure/panic to achieve the same. 2)Highly successful people do not have the time to manage their kids. Getting kids into HYPDS generally takes some degree of micro management AT SOME POINT in high school. Very few HYPS level kids are completely self driven from ages 14-18. 3)Intelligence reverts to the mean? Not sure if this is true or not but it kind of holds true for some families I know. [/quote]
