[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]From these posts, it strikes me that a lot of Top 25 kids would be more comfortable at a Top 26-50 school. Basically, they could get a great education without the cut throat competition and sole focus on academics. [/quote] Good insight. The competitive/grind/boring student body complaint seems to be a common theme here. (Not surprising given how hard kids need to grind in HS to be accepted in the first place …. ) Any Top 25 schools that don’t come with that obsessively competitive/resume-building/grind vibe? [/quote] There are lots of high schools that don't have that vibe where students that are academically competitive are outliers. These kids want to find the environment you are describing and there is nothing wrong with that. Why would a kid that enjoys a more laid back vibe, want to go to one of these types of intense colleges?[/quote]
