[quote=Anonymous]It sounds like you have a very talented kid, OP. I agree with others who say a degree from a prestigious college is not important. BUT he won't reach his potential in his career unless he is actually motivated. Maybe he's not motivated in his classes, but would be a responsible and motivated worker in a job he is passionate about. For a kid like this, I would focus more on work ethic than natural ability. Talent is not enough, and there are plenty of prodigies that squander their talent. The people who drop out of college but are successful have drive and work ethic. [/quote]
