[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My kid is not applying to any ivies despite the fact he scored 36 on the ACT and has gotten mostly A's through high school. He says he doesn't want the [b]"cut-throat"[/b] environment. Not sure where he is getting that impression, but my husband really would like him to apply to Yale just for the heck of it. We toured the school a few weeks ago, and he seemed impressed, so maybe he will. It can't hurt to try, and reading this thread alleviates my fears that it would not be a good fit for him if he were to get in. We are also URM, so that may be a potential hook.[/quote] I had to laugh. None of them have a cut throat environment. It really is what you make of it. It can be challenging, or it can be easy.
