[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My non-legacy, non-hooked kid is heading off to an ivy in the fall. DC feels incredibly fortunate to have been admitted against the odds, and knows full well many equally or arguably smarter kids were turned away. During school visits, we found the students we met down to earth. My DC isn't turning into an A -hole because DC will attend an ivy league school, and just looks forward to meeting many interesting other classmates. [/quote] Your DC will be thinking and working too hard in that competitive environment to even think about becoming an A-hole. It's always the Others--those who couldn't make it into the Ivies and knew enough to not even try-who project what they think their Ivy personality would be like onto those who actually attended.[/quote]
