[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I don't think the academics is high pressure at all. I think college admissions is ridiculous and arbitrary. They are driving up ridiculous expectations on the students - grades, tests, APs, ECs, Leadership positions, hooks, quirky pasttimes, social work, essays, recommendations. The parenting is being driven by college admissions requirement. [/quote] But does it pan out for all but a few? It doesn’t seem like it. [/quote]
