[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My kid was burnt out from the pressures of a W high school, so she chose a lower ranked school to get out of the pressure cooker . Being a big fish in a small pond helped her blossom. I am proud that she could make that choice.[/quote]

Lol she “chose” it.  It wasn’t chosen for her.  Sure.  Ok. [/quote]

Yeah, she turned down six more highly ranked schools. You can’t picture that I know. [/quote]

No, she didn’t.  You’re full of it.  There’s not a college student in America who chose their 7th ranked choice.  Name the schools she turned down and the one she selected. [/quote]

NP. Your imaginary world is so weird. What a strange person you are, untethered to any reality. Of course that is what OPs kid did. It’s very common. Ask any admissions counselor. I worked in admissions and saw kids routinely choose much lower-ranked schools, often over a list of higher ones.

Agree. My DD chose a lower ranked school as well. I went to a LAC myself with a fair number of graduates of highly ranked privates, including boarding schools, who chose lower pressure colleges because they were burnt out. [/quote]
