[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I’ve recently learned that excellent grades and top test scores is not what prestigious/expensive colleges are looking for. I don’t really care about prestige, and I’d rather save my money, but my smart kid would like to study math with a bunch of other smart kids. Some weed-out is ok, but preferably not too cut-throat.

Where do the boring smart kids go?[/quote]

Oh, good grief. Of course top schools want excellent grades and top test scores, but so many students have these. They are just not enough.

Like PPs have said, there are smart kids at every school

Definitely trolling.  And to add, many brilliant kids who can’t afford an elite private or OOS school go to their state schools.  There are tons of extremely smart kids at all these schools.  [/quote]

The honors college a most state universities is filled with extremely smart kids who chose there because the privates or OOS flagships are not affordable.  Many attend the honors college in-state with great merit and smartly graduate with minimal debt, leaving them able to more easily afford graduate school.
