[quote=Anonymous]This kind of talk is so silly. As noted above, if an 18-year-old can amass the record of achievement required to gain admission to Brown nowadays, then they are almost certainly a highly motivated, high achieving student who is at the very top of their high school class

If they get to Brown and actually have a chance to lower their internal pressure a little, maybe discover something they’re genuinely enthusiastic about rather than clearing the next hurdle of achievement, then that’s a good thing

My child had a great experience there, and whether or not their grades were over inflated as an undergrad, is now about to graduate with honors from law school at the University of Chicago, probably the law school most renowned for its highly rigorous and regimented grading. So maybe, just maybe, kids who make great grades in high school can continue to make them in college and then in graduate school because they’re good at making great grades and not because Brown’s academics are lacking [/quote]
