[quote=Anonymous]I don’t know, OP, this is all great, but it is not the end- just the beginning. I have one at a T20 college and have heard how competitive it is and know it would not fit my younger child who is applying this year. When they go to college they are on their own, we don’t have access to their curriculum, assignments and grades, and they need to be truly independent and ready to do this on their own. Also I grew up with a single parent who couldn’t afford time or money to be involved. I’m sure she felt like she lost the parenting wars back then. But looking back, in many ways I’m doing just as well or “better” than her friends’ kids who went to elite colleges. So there’s really no winning here - just different paths for different kids [/quote]
