[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My daughter graduated from St Andrews two years ago with a Double Honors degree in History and IR. She gave up Notre Dame, USC and NYU to go to St Andrews. A lot of people told her she was crazy.

She spent the last 2 years working at a EU Multinational trade consulting firm, hired by a St Andrews alumni. This is an opportunity she probably would have never had, if not from the super strong St Andrews alumni network.

And now she was just recently accepted to a t3 Law School in the US starting Fall 2025.

I cant stress enough how amazing of an opportunity this was for her.[/quote]

Nothing crazy. DD gave up Notre Dame for St Andrews. Only misinformed mediocre Americans would raise eyebrows….[/quote]

I’m afraid that’s just not true. But no one should care—it’s obviously a great school. [/quote]

What part of my comment wasn’t true?[/quote]

“ Only misinformed mediocre Americans would raise eyebrows….”

Unless you consider investment bankers, heads of government agencies, CEOs of international NGOs and McKinsey partners misinformed and mediocre? Those are just of the few we encountered. Once explained, they got it, but don’t imagine that St Andrews is on everyone’s radar as a competitive school. Even among parents/kids at our DC private, it is still a safety. [/quote]

Interesting because MMBs targets St Andrews grads….I just know because I recruited for one of the Big 3….sad your McKinsey partner knew nothing about it. :-)[/quote]

Yes, tragic  :cry: [/quote]
