[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think people need to distinguish between Harvard, Yale, Princeton and the rest of the ivies. For this generation of students, Brown, Penn, Cornell, Dartmouth, and Columbia are not meaningfully different in desirability or status from about ten other schools. And yes, everyone is noting that the students going to HYP ain't all that these days, especially compared to the other T20 schools, including the "lesser" ivies. [/quote] Whatever floats your boat. There is a great education to be had at any of these schools. If your kid can do better somewhere else than Princeton then turn down Princeton. Students do it every year and it's fine. Other kids choose Columbia or MIT or a top public university. There is an excellent education with excellent opportunities to be had it all of them.[/quote]
