[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Maybe visit a different kind of college? My DS wanted to go to college but he hates the AP classes and he hates living on the east coast. He is a kid that wanted a lower paced life and to live in a less urban environment. He now attends a small school in the south - slower pace, less academic, good weather. He is happy. Maybe show your kids some other options.[/quote] +1 Stop aiming for Top everything. A college degree is a college degree. I work alongside people who graduated from schools ranked 250+, yet I graduated T10. We all get paid similarly and all do a great job. I'm not special because of where I attended college, I went, worked hard, did well, graduated and so did all thse other people. So let your kid apply to less selective universities and let them find a good fit, place that is collaborative and not Competitive. The goal is for them to graduate college and find a career path. It's not T25 or bust. [/quote]
