[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think successful Asians and Nigerians should start procreating. :D

My kid is part Asian and part African among other stuff, but not the above combination.[/quote]And now we know who starts these ridiculous racial threads.  [/quote]

Lol, no, never started a "racial" thread, and just discovered this thread.  My kid's in preschool.  [/quote]Bored, huh?  Just discovered this thread or probably this forum, and this is your contribution.  Great.  Just what the college forum needs.  More nonsensical posts.  Your preschooler needs you.  Geez![/quote]

Preschooler is doing fine.  Spending the day going to museums with Dad while I'm at wk.

Ok, so I do have a more serious contribution.  Why all the criticism for applying to all 8 Ivies?  Presumably the kid applied at age 17, when lots of different types of college settings may appeal to her.  Yes they're all very different, but a determined, self-motivated kid may be able to thrive at any of them.  If she felt like she had what it takes to be a competitive candidate at each of them, then why not apply?[/quote]

Because some people on DCUM have to complain about something.[/quote]
