[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Honestly, even at Browning you aren’t going to have a super happy adolescence if you choose to gun for Harvard, assuming unconnected.  You’ll just be surrounded by happier peers.[/quote]

Different era, but I was a top-performing student at a thoroughly meh private school, it didn't even particularly occur to me to apply to Harvard until spring of my junior year, and I still got in. And I don't get the impression most kids of my generation spent their entire HS careers working towards Harvard. My freshman roommates were two public school kids - one from a not particularly good NYC public (though they were very bright and had an interesting life story) - and a kid from a meh boarding school; we ended up with one Stuy kid and one HM kid in our blocking group and neither of them was among the smarter members of our blocking group.[/quote]

Yeah, completely different era.  Things have gotten totally out of control now and you have to plan your life around Harvard admissions to the point where it’s not even worth it in most cases.[/quote]
