[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I didn’t read all 19 pages but I will say this:  anyone who thinks “game over” or “we won the war” when all that’s happened so far is their kid has gotten into a great college [b]has a rude awakening ahead.[/b]  [/quote]

Why do you say this? Students who get in unhooked, not TO, find themselves on track to do at least average if not better. Even if they end up "only"average, given that average is 3.75-3.9, many paths to T30-50 grad/med/law and tgreatcompanies await with that GPA from a top school. The top 10-25% of these students have a great shot at T10 grad/prof and MBB-level companies.[/quote]

Are you an immigrant? 
I think we can tell. You have no idea what is coming.....[/quote]

Definitely immigrant or first gen. [/quote]

Yes, those are the parents who haven't typically had a regular American college experience themselves. They don't realize these kids are dealing with far more than academics during those tricky four years.  [/quote]
