[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Aren't there more and more UMC and up kids who were born in wealthy coastal communities that now claim to be "rural" because their parents telework or don't really have to work anymore so they moved somewhere like Montana? And school quality isn't really an issue because they can go to boarding school? Even 30 years ago, lots of these kids at Ivies. [/quote] The colleges see what schools they attend. :roll: [/quote] And they love that. The truth is they don't want someone from Podunk High School who has never taken an AP, they'd rather have the kid of a professor or a rural doctor's kid or a tech person's kid who goes to a boarding school and can handle rigor and is full-pay.[/quote] Very very true. Better if they get to mark rural too. My daughter’s roommate at a T10 is from aspen. Parents are “retired”. Yes, she’s rural. [/quote]
