[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]What the article is getting at is that smart people with emotional intelligence go far. Basing that conclusion on Ivy schools is a little reductive however. It's a very outdated metric. There are bright students with a high emotional IQ at all sorts of schools in 2026. But peer group and good manners do matter of course - as they have since the beginning of time. Not exactly rocket science. [/quote] The metric is the concentration of these people. Far fewer in other schools.[/quote] bingo.[/quote] Parent of a current Ivy student who describes all of his classmates as "cracked" and says it has made him better. [/quote] Same. It can cause angst but boy does it push them all. [/quote] My Ivy kid is actually surprised by how unimpressive many of their classmates are--can't do math, can't write, etc[/quote]
