[quote=Anonymous]We have had 3 kids go through the college application process from a Big 3, and while I agree with the PP who suggested that the kids in the middle of the class benefit the most from the imprimatur these schools offer, they're not going to benefit to the point of getting into Wesleyan, Cornell, Chicago or some of the other schools cited in that post. I'd say a middle-of-the-pack kid has a better shot at NYU, Colby, Bates, Emory or Kenyon -- all very good schools, but not as selective. Overall, though PP is correct that it doesn't make a lot of sense to choose a Big 3 for college prospects -- there are just too many variables that enter into the equation. [/quote]
