[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Yes, I'm kind of completely turned off by the Ivies and similar right now because I picture them being completely filled with the liars, cheaters and products of extreme helicopter parents. I.e. a wholly unappealing bunch and the kids that mine have tried to avoid. (I'm being honest here--I'm sure the next posters will say that my kids could never get in anyway---probably true--but the kids applying to Ivies from their schools are largely a group that my kids want nothing to do with because of their intense and often unethical behavior). [/quote] I went to grad school at Harvard and was an RA in the 2010s--I found the undergrad students to be generally amazing, brilliant and kind people. They are fairly earnest too. Don't believe the hype.[/quote]
