[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Basically title - and I'm not being sarcastic. I looked at the resume of a local kid going to Harvard and my mind was blown. National merit finalist. 4.0. But those were a given. After that, he racked up at least 7 individual awards including the Harvard book award from Junior year, a superintendent award given to one student per district. He also had mind blowing extra curriculars that he led/founded. This led me to another one from my town who played a niche sport, sang as a soloist and in a huge choir but also racked up tons of science fair awards and grants. Both of these students could have been three students with the amount of success they'd seen in high school. Are they ALL like this? Are your kids like this? [/quote]
Not the kids so much, but I see their parents as truly special. Without them good things don't happen for their kids. Just ask them.[/quote]

I have a kid at HYP and her group's parents are pretty impressive.  Kid of prime minister, academy award winner, another very famous politician, billionaire family, CEO dad of large forture 500.  As I write this it doesn't even sound real to me.  We are nobodies but somehow our kid was admitted. [/quote]
