[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This is why rich people are dumb. Exeter grad — my parents had no “pull”, did not make much money, and the only knowledge we had was a book from the library and a catalogue from the private secondary schools association. How will your kids go through life? With parents paying fixers at every turn? [/quote] You do realize you had socioeconomic diversity, right? I'm from New England and know that the prep schools have always had spots for kids from regular backgrounds including kids from the area who were financial aid/scholarship recipients. You are not applying to the same pool and based on what I saw, your "credentials" (test scores, grades, extracurricular interests) were of a higher standard than the middling/average student from a wealthy/famous family. That's just life in America and I agree that having your parents make life too easy can lead to problems down the road.[/quote]
