[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I also do not agree with posters who say that the road to Ivies is random, luck, or a “crap shoot”. When I look back on my sons graduating class, all of the placements made sense in the end. Some of the top students may not have made it to an Ivy League school, but they did go to school in the top 10 USNWR (Chicago, Duke). [/quote] +1 I agree with this. We've now graduated 4 from high school and most of the acceptances/selections for their classmates made sense. I also believe that our perspectives are skewed in the DMV. There are so many of us who have college degrees and advanced degrees ourselves, and the area in general is so competitive, that there is a lot of tunnel vision casting our collective gazes at a very small range of schools deemed uber-desirable.
