[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]People ranting against ED are just annoyed that they can’t afford to pay full price at all these colleges that they covet. They also are delusional when they assume rich kids that can afford full pay are not smart or deserving. Many kids are rich because their parents are super successful and high IQ. Guess what? Successful, smart, rich people usually raise really interesting, smart, driven kids. [/quote]

Why WOW?   Kids who grow up in families where it's expected they do well academically and kids know after HS the next path is undergrad and then likely graduate school of some type, tend to be qualified for top rated schools.  That is not a shock.

But what is delusional is donut hole parents thinking that a T30 school that barely gives any merit (if not zero) will somehow be affordable to them in RD.  It wont be if it's not affordable in ED.  So the fact remains that you should focus on schools that are affordable to you and stop complaining about not being able to ED to a school that isn't affordable and never will be.
