[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My DS had a 3.1 GPA from FPCS but got recruited to play Lacrosse at a P5 school. My other DS, 4.4 GPA with 1600 on the SAT, attended Yale, and that was eight years ago. The 3.1 GPA DS is currently making around 750K/year while the other Yale's DS is making 105K/year. IMHO, it is not about the school, it is how you make it while you are there. It is the EQ that matters.[/quote] Is the 3.1 student in finance, law or tech? Making 750k how many years out of school? Both boys sound talented. Congrats to them! Agree on EQ mattering. [b]My DS has a high EQ and is the charming, extroverted, likable type. I know he will be successful regardless if where he goes to school. [/b][/quote] This is my younger DC. Older DC was an A student with excellent SAT score while younger DC works harder but is still a B+ student who so far has good but not great PSAT scores. But while I love both of my kids, I have no problem saying that the older one is not easy to get along with and will have many more challenges interacting with people and navigating the "real world" after graduation. DC#2 won't go to a T50, or maybe even T100, school but I'm not all that worried. The end result will still be a well rounded, well educated kid who has tools to succeed and be happy.[/quote]
