[quote=Anonymous]Having just gone through the college process last year, I can tell you that any kid who goes to any of the top 20 schools, on merit alone, is extremely bright. It is ultra competitive and many of these schools are looking for a certain profile. Grades and SAT scores at a minimum need to be almost perfect and your child needs to stand out in a unique way. Even then, it's still random if and where they'll get in. These colleges are all so different in their offerings. There is no way a kid would be interested in Georgetown and Notre Dame and Berkeley and Brown. They are just so vastly different in their cultures. However, like anything else in life, what matters after college is if the kids can hit the ground running and be very motivated. And that kind of grit can be found at every school.[/quote]
