[quote=Anonymous]The NYTimes article cited is so "on point." I was very similar and was not an Ivy grad but did go to another TT school and have a job that exposes me to a lot of young people seeking recommendations. I have this to say: stop pushing your kids. A lot of them feel that the only way to gain your love is by getting into a prestigious college. The more strained they feel, the less likely they are to get in, as all TT schools are concerned about mental health, a huge issue in freshman classes.[/quote]
