[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My kid will be a freshman at Pitt. If he does well, I really don't think that will be a negative unless he is being compared to a kid from a top 20 school. I think this is the case for a lot of schools. There are plenty of smart kids out there.[/quote] I think Pitt is probably one of the very very best schools there is that is easy to get into. This was a safety for DC and 97% of students from DC's HS get admitted. I still insisted on visiting Pitt and DC was grumbling that they don't need demonstrated interest to get into Pitt. Among all the schools we visited, the kids at Pitt were the happiest and most enthusiastic of all. More than anything this really put a stop to my stress at least. If this is the school DC's ends up, we would be happy. If Pitt played the games that some colleges do for ranking they would be top 30 school. DC would be going to a T5 school, but Pitt was high up the potential colleges.[/quote]
