[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]You can't be serious. That's the tour guide equivalent of cocktail party question. Where do you live/work. Good lord.[/quote] This We asked the question. Didn’t really care what the answer was. Had one kid that came across as [b]not very bright and stated he was going to Stanford. That was surprising[/b].[/quote] This is exactly why these questions are useless. It's not the school that affects top admissions - it's having a hook. If your kid isn't hooked, don't count on T20. Especially at highly regarded private schools filled with hooked kids. Plus - if a student already knows they are going to Stanford during fall tours, they are a recruited athlete. Even for EA/SCEA/ED tops schools don't release decisions until December (and they are typically in the latter half of December). [/quote]
