[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think it really depends on the kid. Is your kid intellectual? If so, I’d spring for the Ivy because she will be happier with the social peer group and less bored with classes. But if not, she might be happier with the in state school. Just because she can get into the Ivy because of the sport doesn’t mean it will be a good fit for her. If she feels out of place with the peer group or in the classes, she might be miserable.[/quote] Yes, she’s intellectual and smart but likely wouldn’t be able able to get into Ivy without being recruited. She’s not Uber smart and other than excelling at her sport, doesn’t have any other ‘hooks or standouts’. [/quote] Damn what sport? [/quote] Field hockey :oops: [/quote]
