[quote=Anonymous]This is an interesting thread that has kind of veered away from Stanford and Berkeley to how depressing/difficult the process can be. There is an excellent video around (a Ted Talk if I remember correctly) that gives really good advice, which is simple too, and that is do not fall in love with any one school. Your student should find a group of schools that are interesting and where he/she would be happy, and then spin the wheel. The talk shows how getting into college is actually easier today than it was a decade ago, contrary to public opinion, though getting into any particular college is more difficult. Keep n mind that most kids, not all but most, love college and that is true for students who end up in unexpected places. It is a great experience andnot dependent on that one brass ring.i [/quote]
