[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Parents helicopter over kids to get them into “top tier” schools and then completely drop the ball when it comes to helping them choose a lucrative or “impressive” field of study. If you are going to go through all the trouble of hovering over your child so they get into Harvard, why would you pay for them to study interpretive dance? I’m more impressed by a kid in a[b] pre med program[/b] at a mid tier school than a kid studying creative writing at an ivy. [/quote] Do any schools actually have "pre-med programs"? Back in my day, kids who wanted to go to medical school majored in things like biology and chemistry. Or really anything, as long as they completed the pre-recs for med school. I even know international relations and econ majors who went to med school.[/quote]
