[quote=Anonymous]Oh geez - I was at JHU in the mid-80s and can remember some of those 14 yr olds. They were invariably overweight, dressed by mom, often pre-pubescent, driven to school by mom each day. They may have had other 14 yr old peers at Hopkins, but they certainly did NOT mix well with the rest of us regular 130 IQ 18 year olds. In general, I'm afraid, we felt a fair amount of disdain for them. Send your kid to Andover or Exeter to learn how to socialize, which is AT LEAST as important as scholarly pursuits. There's no medal given for finishing college when you're 18 - you just have to start work sooner. [/quote]
