[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I understand why the PP mentioned they had graduated from ivies because it offers context. If children grow up in a home where the parents graduated from highly selective colleges it does set an unspoken bar for them academically….[b]there is a presumption they will prioritize academics and aim high on college admissions.[/b] Personally I have no regrets with being hands off……both children were admitted to their top choice ED. They drove the process and we provided advice when asked.[/quote] They were aiming, all right. But missing the mark. [/quote] Really? One graduated from a top5 LAC and the other is at an ivy and as I said, both applied ED so the hit their mark by definition.[/quote] Huh? That PP stated one child was at a top 50 LAC and the other is still in HS.[/quote]
