[quote=Anonymous]I'm PP 20:39. I've got a high school junior who's getting caught up in this ridiculous frenzy. For what it's worth. I'm also a writer. I think she makes amazing points. The ones about her parents are spot on. So many top school applicants effectively have managers/personal assistants/chauffeurs in the wings. There is a spectrum of tiger moms. Even middling tiger moms are more effectual than detached parents like hers. The letter could help her career, if she wants to go into publishing (what's left of it), PR, advertising, etc. Legacy and connected alums still matter. Connected alums champion applicants, too. (I've got two alums offering to recommend my child to their alma maters.)[/quote]
