[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][b]First of all, disabuse yourself of the notion that students who went to lower ranked schools "worked less hard." Students opt for lower ranked schools for many reasons that have nothing to do with their brains or work ethic [/b]- financial, geographic, athletic, etc. Perhaps they do have connections at the firms you mentioned, or perhaps they actually work harder than your son -- higher GPAs, more impressive extracurriculars, leadership roles, relevant work experience, research, etc. [/quote] This, this, this OP, you are not doing your child any favors by teaching them to believe that they are more deserving[/quote]
