[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Don't take this the wrong way - I am sure the OP's kid is smart. Does anyone ever factor in how challenging it must be to be a student in Harvard classes? And be surrounded for 4 years by Harvard students?  I mean - does the magically networking fairy bless everyone that goes there?  Not without a price...and I don't mean just money.

The hardest part about Harvard is getting in. It's a trope, but there is a lot of truth in it. If OP had said MIT or Cal or Cal Tech, I'd agree, but he can be a [b]History or English major[/b] at Harvard and be fine.

Well you really aren't familiar with the level of writing and analysis expected in those disciplines at Harvard, are you? [/quote]

Exactly.  Since when is writing easier than math?  They are just different, but are equally hard.  Are you able to just churn out papers with a deep level of analysis and with great writing easily? [/quote]

If you can write well enough to get in, you can write well enough to pass. Math requires a base of knowledge that you can't fake your way through. [/quote]
