[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Doesn't have anything to do with sour grapes. It's more of a reaction to the obsession with obtaining 'elite' credentials, especially when they are gatekept by obscure or questionable processes, and the extreme min/max optimized paths parents put their children through to obtain them.[/quote] Lots of top schools, both ivy league and others are all competing to get the best student body they can get. These students are going to pursue a higher education somewhere and the top colleges want the top kids to pick their institution. The ivy leak might not be the perfect fit for everybody, but you could do worse than have access to the education available at some of the departments in these schools. There are a lot of excellent classes.[/quote]
