[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]HYPS grad here (from the 90's). One of the things that I realized in college was that I could have been a math major anywhere else. (My university had only about 6 math majors a year, they rarely bathed, and they all went on to elite Ph.d programs). I took a few summer courses at my local state university and enjoyed being at the top of the class again. So, a lot depends upon your daughter. Does she want to major in something that is considered an "elite" major? Or, will she major in something more accessible? Does she like networking? Or, does she want to pursue a field like medicine that is GPA dependent? Does she like getting attention for being the smartest person in the room or is she content to just be herself?[/quote] Very good post! But don't sell your kid short, either. [/quote]
