[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]From my experience, many education consultants in DC also have the same view as Mr. Bruni. In fact, I've even heard the Director of Admissions at a Big 3 make many of these same points.[/quote] Seems ironic, given how hard Big 3-type schools try to outplace so many of their students in HYPS-type schools.[/quote] I think a lot of the HYPS angling is coming from the students and parents, not the counseling department. That being said, given that consumers judge these schools based on outplacement, it's hard for any school to truly opt out of the rat race in that respect. That said, I know many of the administrators at top schools are trying to fight the attitude that only certain colleges are acceptable. [/quote]
