[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]You're thinking about it all wrong. There are many more great schools, students, and professors than there were when we were kids. That's cause for celebration, not despair. It's only if you refuse to broaden your view to acknowledge that improvement beyond the traditional elites that things look grim. Adjust your thinking to fit reality for the sake of your own mental health--and especially for your kid's.[/quote]

OP, you should stop posting now. People are not allowed to be upset about the schools their kids don't get into. People are not allowed to be upset for how much you'll have to spend or how little aid you'll receive.

You need to be happy with the scraps you get. And if you're not, this group of harpies will just go full on flamethrower on you.

So do yourself a favor, and stop checking this Board and asking these questions/expressing your opinions and feelings. I largely have and just check for giggles mostly, no. And it doesn't disappoint.[/quote]

OP here. Lol, you are so right. Sometimes I wonder why I bother. Yes, I know how to use google and how to conduct a search int he forum but isn't the whole point of these forums to ask questions, engage and commiserate? I've learned to just scroll past the "someone posts this every year" or "get over it, OP" comments to get to the actual insightful ones that many people take time to post. [/quote]
