[quote=Anonymous]My experience with a kid in a very high achieving group at a good public school is that in application season all these kids talk big about where they think they are going and where they would never go etc. but then somehow once the acceptances start rolling in and the financial aid/merit awards etc. students have a much more realistic picture of what's happening--and they are all pretty much happy about it and excited for each other. My kid got into his first choice school and it didn't seem to make him happier than his best friend who got into one of his middle choices--as soon as they decided where they were going they were happy. It's exciting to be moving on to the next phase of life. [/quote]
