[quote=Anonymous]As others have said, it's not difficult do perform averagely at the Ivies and other top colleges, except perhaps a handful (Chicago, MIT, Swarthmore). Anyone who's capable of scoring 1300+ on the SATs and maintaining a 3.0 average at a good high school can perform just fine and dandy at these top colleges. Just be realistic about your major. As an double Ivy grad who was also a resident advisor, there's plenty of "normal" students at the Ivies. Regarding post-college recruiting, the big banking and consulting firms did ask for your SAT scores (which I found odd at the time) and I got the impression that they favored higher SAT over a higher college GPA. Perhaps it's different now. Who knows. [/quote]
