[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Selective colleges are worth it for extremely bright people who are unlikely to meet equally bright people anywhere else, and for other bright people who love learning alongside other people who like learning. [b]For kids who aren’t that bright or aren’t that interested in learning, going to an elite school is pointless[/b]. Those kids miss out on great keggers at less selective schools and crowd out kids who would have a lot of fun meeting the general education requirements. Parents who jam kids into those schools are ruining both their own kids’ lives and the lives of the kids who really need those schools. [/quote] It's not pointless, they are in an enviroment where they will make lifelong friends with people who are likely to be succesful. Most people want their kids to be part of a peer group like this. [/quote]
