[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP, you are getting a ton of conflicting advice, I think which is lending itself to your paralysis.

What's key is to remember is that typically when seeking counsel, you're going to look at someone's resume.  Here, you have no clue who is a random SAHM who married well born after going to some random private non-Ivy university, on third thinks they hit a home run, vs who is a POC with similar parents and similar opportunities.  The latter group would have varied experiences that you should consider and I would suggest you take the former's advice with a huge grain of salt.

It would be interesting if you'd ask the posters to give a little background info such as (a) tier of school they graduated from (i.e,. HYP, Seven Sisters, Big Ten), (b) current income/field and ([b]c) if they had strong standardized test scores (just guessing that you do based on the two threads). [/b] You want to hear from POCs who also went to Ivies or similar who didn't have totally smooth sailing (which is all of us I bet) but who stuck it out and how their degrees have helped them, if at all.

Snort. No one cares about your SAT scores in the real world. [/quote]
