[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]What's the point? To secure a high-status job in a top tier city, a quality social circle, and a smart & rich spouse who you can produce bright offspring with.[/quote] This - DCUM is really good for providing the unvarnished truth unlike good-for-nothing 'guidance counselors' in 99% of schools who have no idea how the world works. Tyler Cowen's - average is over, the actuality of class structure growing and ossifying in the US, hyper global competition all provide 'the point'. If OP's daughter can't logically 'get' this, she has no business being at a top school. [/quote]
