As a South Asian, I see a lot of excitement and respect for your “dream school” list of Harvard, Princeton, Stanford, MIT, Duke, Caltech, Penn, and Yale, but I’d also add Columbia feels at the same level amongst other South Asians we know.

In many cases, it's the parents more than the kids

What is with this obsession for top 20? I just don’t get it.

Unless you are in star for UCs, there is going to be a lot of disappointed kids.

Do a YouTube search for college decision reactions. Lots of Asian kids on there, you'll find information you need.

The same top schools all Asians want to go to. Anyone who has to look at a different group isn’t going to be talking about that openly.

Just curious what you have seen with your children and their other Asian friends. And I'm not talking about the consistent Asian dream schools (Harvard, Princeton, Stanford, MIT, Duke, Caltech, Penn, Yale), but schools that are perhaps less obvious. In my daughter's friend group I've been seeing a surprising level of interest in Georgia Tech for example.
