But your high income will count AGAINST your child fitting into any boxes that would get him to the Ivies absent a private school education. So WTF were you thinking. And what does your husband think about your lack of respect for education in general and standardized tests in particular? What if your kids can't do math and thus cannot be the AA poster child for an investment bank. Remember, you checked three boxes, AA, low SES, and female....[/quote]
