[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]For top 10 schools almost everyone is in the range but few get in. That’s why we have so many angry posters on this forum. Being in the range is not enough for most kids at a top 10. [/quote] In my 25 years in education, I've [b]never[/b] seen a genuinely impressive kid get rejected from all of the top 15 (Ivies, MIT, Stanford, Hopkins, Duke, Chicago, Northwestern, Vandy), let alone the top 30 (Georgetown, UCLA, USC, UVa, Michigan). The pissed off parents have kids who are just not that impressive; they're largely just bullsh*t artists with striver bullsh*t artist parents who think their sort of lazy snowflake is entitled to 1 of ~ 30,000 top 15 freshman seats.[/quote]
