[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I went to a top 5 school in the 90s. There was a mix of kids: nerds, quirky types, rich kids, etc. Now it’s not a mixture anymore. All strivers with no social lives and no goals other than HYPSM. I wouldn’t encourage my kids to go for it. [/quote] Where would you encourage? In my research (and talking to grads from our private HS), social, smart savvy kids seem to like: Vanderbilt Brown Dartmouth Stanford Cornell (big Greek life/fratty scene) UChicago USC Middlebury Colgate Syracuse U-Miami Tulane SMU And for public flagships: Michigan UCLA UVA Wisconsin [/quote] Yup. My normalish smart kid applied to 6 of those (plus 5 others including Wake and BC) and attended one on your list (non Ivy). [/quote]
