This board has finally convinced me that I do not want my child to go to HYP because the parents of those future HYP kids are head cases!!! ( If UB is any indication) Sorry- I love reading here, but it scares me! [ Reply | Watch | Flag ]

I'm not a HYP lover (I'm one of those always posting that I'd rather my child go to a liberal arts college for undergrad) but I've got to say that parents are out of the equation by the time college rolls around. [ Reply | More

Honey, forget about HYP. Worry about the school dc will go to now. Avoid the ones with the hardcore HYP hopefuls is my advice to you. [ Reply | More

Op here-I hear you loud and clear! Dc is already in a school that I am happy with. I am not so HYP focussed- went to small liberal arts college where everyone ( including me) had been rejected from H, Y, or P. Brother went ivy and thinks the world owes hi im a living for it. I have been much more "successful" ( happier and more financially secure). Anyway-just happy with the path I took....I hope DC will be happy with his, wherever that may be. [ Reply | More

Perfect. Honestly, we don't want your scared types in HYP. It is most competitive schools in the world. (maybe except the top tier ones in china and india). I need my child to have peers who can compete with the best and not scaredy-cats and kittens. [ Reply | More
