[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My kid was burnt out from the pressures of a W high school, so she chose a lower ranked school to get out of the pressure cooker . Being a big fish in a small pond helped her blossom. I am proud that she could make that choice.[/quote]

Lol she “chose” it.  It wasn’t chosen for her.  Sure.  Ok. [/quote]

Yeah, she turned down six more highly ranked schools. You can’t picture that I know. [/quote]

No, she didn’t.  You’re full of it.  There’s not a college student in America who chose their 7th ranked choice.  Name the schools she turned down and the one she selected. [/quote]

I'm not the person you're responding to, but would you knock it off? Stick to the topic.[/quote]

But it IS the topic.  This poster suggested that the OP’s kid is unhappy because they went by ranking instead of fit in selecting a college, then suggested her kid turned down 6 more highly ranked schools for the one they went to.  I’m merely calling them out for the BS.  On top of everything else, anyone who claims it’s all about fit and not about rankings isn’t going to know off the top of their head exactly where every one of the schools that their kid applied to was ranked.
