[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I was talking to some old college friends who are now in the Bay Area and they’re on another level it seems. Many of them are pushing their kids pretty hard to get [b]Harvard, Stanford, Duke, Columbia, etc.[/b] Just goes to show it’s all relative[/quote]

Troll.

No one outside the DMV area considers Duke in this group.  Bay area people don't. [/quote]

I live in California now and you’re wrong, Duke and Columbia are both very desirable at top high schools here. HPSM are not the only schools people are looking at because they know odds are pretty low they’ll snag one.[/quote]

+1 it’s weird to see some parents on here in complete denial. I know a kid from Cali who turned down 4 ivies for Duke all regular pay. I’ve also known a top ISEF winner choose Columbia over Yale and a dual degree at Penn all regular pay. If a school is T10 smart people will be interested, especially considering Duke and Columbia have been T10 for 20+ years now.[/quote]
