[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Don’t sweat it OP. Sadly the biggest flex some parents or kids will ever have is where the kid is applying. In most cases the time and money spent is a total waste, but whatever.[/quote] This seems to give you joy. Maybe think about that.[/quote] It doesn’t give me joy - it is a fact. OP is asking how to handle people that boast and publicize where their kid is applying in a competitive way, and in the end, with the exception of recruited athletes. most will end up at a State U or lesser known LAC. Nothing wrong with these schools, but Having been thorough this process a few times, the kids that get into the top schools are rarely a surprise nor are the ones that are rejected. [/quote] I'm sorry but your own words in the first post dispute that assertion. You have zero empathy for those families, at a minimum. Why do you care what other families do so much?[/quote]
