[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Ask her why she thinks she should like the more prestigious school. If it's because she and all of her friends think it's supposedly going to lead to a better life than the less selective school, have her read the essay below and look at relevant lists on this website. This helped my kid and some of her friends see that they'll be fine whichever of their colleges they choose.

What a fantastic website — thanks for introducing it, PP! Our family leans toward not freaking out over selective admissions, but there’s a big gap psychologically between making that decision in theory and actually making the choice that (while best for us for other reasons) might cut down DDs chances at the most selective schools. DD is starts high school next year and I’ve been thinking a lot about this dilemma, so that website came along at exactly the right time. [/quote]

You're welcome. I like that it comes at the issue from so many different angles, with data to support the points being made.[/quote]
