[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote] This might have been true 10 or 20 years ago. But these days it's so hard to get into these highly selective schools (also SLACs, Stanford, MIT and many others too) that the kids who get in are self-driven and really motivated. Plus the vast majority are taking on lots of debt and aren't going to waste their four years. The stereotype of the rich party kid who thinks Princeton is a fancy summer camp is really just that, a stereotype, these days. I know kids at these schools today. The party hardy kids who slip through the admissions cracks can, and do, flunk out.[/quote] Keep telling yourself that! [/quote] My info comes from kids I know who are actually in highly selective schools (Ivies and SLACs) right now. Whereas you are clearly talking out your butt. Please, go plague the Political Forum.
