[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]To loaded and connected parents, UVA is a fun college which demonstrates the kids are pretty smart with high social IQs. Places like Ivies, Stanford and UChicago are for try-hard strivers desperate to prove themselves, athletes, and under-represented minorities.[/quote] [b]That is the kind of comment that turns people against UVA.[/quote][/b] I don't think it was posted by someone trying to boost for UVA. It's also untrue. It takes such a high GPA and test scores to get in to the top state schools that the "fun" "fratty" remarks are from people of another generation. [/quote] To me, the original comment sounds like they are saying UVA has smarter students than most schools, but if they aren't smarter, it isn't by much, and they are still more fun and have higher social IQs. There is a multi-level conceit in that statement that ticks people off.[/quote] Social IQ = they drink a lot.[/quote]
