[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Pay to play are worthless for help in getting into a school! You are just giving that school money. Colleges would rather see your child have a job or something. [/quote] You say that as if "giving that school money" is meaningless to that school! Again, it may be pure anecdata, but I've seen this strategy work again and again. The kid at my kids' school who got into Brown, but no other T20 school, went to Brown pre-college. Same thing with the person who got into UChicago - a summer program plus ED and that kid was accepted. Are you trying to say that the "pay to play" program was worthless and that working as a camp counselor would have been a better thing for these kid's activities list? That makes no sense.[/quote]
