[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I am not a troll. I’m the parent of a HS sophomore who is killing themselves excelling in school and participating in extracurriculars to be competitive for T20. At the same time, I see parents on here posting how their kid went to Cornell and ended up in the same place as someone who went to Pitt or another similarly ranked school. At the same time, in my job I work alongside people who have gone to ivies and schools I’ve never heard of. I went to Michigan, btw. My sister did her undergraduate at Oxford, stayed in the UK and is now partner at a well respected consulting firm alongside other partners that went to no name schools from India. So seeing the stress my kid goes through, I am honestly asking what is the point of a Yale or Princeton if they take you to the same place that a school like Rutgers and Radford can take you?! [/quote] The point is the education. You may value that or not. [/quote]
