[quote=Anonymous]Interesting the debate that emerges from the use of the term Striver. Originally the term was positive (think upward mobility aka Striver's Row in NYC) but that's clearly changed in connection to the academic culture in competitive schools. There is a huge difference between the achievement of excellence for its own sake, vs attainment of the hallmarks of excellence (absent true achievement). [/quote]
