[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I don’t know many turning down Ivies. I think parents will look for something to make themselves feel good. With 3-5% acceptance rate it’s a choice very few have the luxury of even making. [/quote] This. Everyone I know in DMV (if kid remotely has stats) puts some Ivies on the list as ultra-reach. The conversation is always— kid is going to X—unless they get into an Ivy and then we will pay. Just look at this board and the industry of private counselors aimed at getting kids into an Ivy. It’s a Tiger Mom/Dad’s wet dream. [b]When they don’t succeed, cue the veiled puppeted responses putting down the schools their kids got rejected from.[/b] [/quote] This. It's always crystal clear who was rejected when they say unnecessarily spiteful things about certain schools that have no basis in reality.[/quote]
