[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I dunno why so much emphasis on getting into Ivies? My Dd may be allowed to apply for one or two if she has the grades and scores, but I don't want to bank on getting in. She is already drinking the Kool Aid offered by her peers and their parents that these are the "acceptable" schools. She broke down crying to me about her prospects. It is a real shame to have so much pressure on you at a young age. My advice to her is to go where it will be the best program and fit for you. This may or may not be an Ivy. You will do weel regardless of where you go to school.[/quote] This is so sad, but very typical of UMC teens today. [/quote]
